Seems the only one who doesn't see your beauty
Is the face in the mirror looking back at you
You walk around here thinking you're not pretty
But that's not true, cause I know you
"You're beautiful Dan. Anyone can see that"
"I…thanks, I guess"
"You really are. I would never lie to you, would I?"
"I'm…I'm really not Phil"
"You are"
You flashes me a small sad smile
"Okay"
It's always easier for you to just agree
Hold on, baby, you're losing it
The water's high, you're jumping into it
And letting go... and no one knows
You cry, but you don't tell anyone
That you might not be the golden one
And you're tied together with a smile
But you're coming undone
Putting on a brace face.
That's all you ever do.
Pretending you're fine when you're not.
I always tell you I love you.
That you mean the world to me.
That you're the one person I love more than anyone in the world.
And maybe you do believe in those words.
But it's never enough.
I guess it's true that love was all you wanted
Cause you're giving it away like it's extra change
Hoping it will end up in his pocket
But he leaves you out like a penny in the rain
Oh, cause it's not his price to pay
Not his price to pay
You think you're never good enough
Never good enough for anyone
Not beautiful enough
Not loved
You think you don't deserve my love
I tell you every chance I get, that you do
I love you
I need you
But you'll never understand that if you can't see how beautiful you really are.
Hold on, baby, you're losing it
The water's high, you're jumping into it
And letting go... and no one knows
You cry, but you don't tell anyone
That you might not be the golden one
And you're tied together with a smile
But you're coming undone
