Things aren't always what they seem

It’s hard enough to find the time to sleep

It’s easier to find the time to dream

Another night spent too far from the stars

Things Aren’t Always What They Seem

It’s hard enough to find my place at home

It’s easier out here on my own

A father’s love is no such thing I know

Things Aren’t Always What They Seem

Oh Things Aren’t Always What They Seem

Things Aren’t Always What They Seem

To be and I just hope your memory’s proud of me

I might cry myself to sleep

And imagine that you’re here with me

It’s hard enough to find someone to trust

It’s easier to live life scared to love

A mother’s touch is going way too soon

Things Aren’t Always What They Seem

No Things Aren’t Always What They Seem

Things Aren’t Always What They Seem

To be and I just hope your memory’s proud of me

I might cry myself to sleep

And imagine that you’re here with me

You’re not really that much different

From me

Oh I’ve got everything it seems but what I need

Oh won’t you tell me what you see when you look at me

When you look at me

No Things Aren’t Always What They Seem

Things Aren’t Always What They Seem

To be and I just hope your memory’s proud of me

I might cry myself to sleep

And imagine that you’re here with me
