Shallow

Lyrics

[Intro] You're watching the cars, movies and stars They are your lifetime Yet, all that I am is half what we are Maybe some other time I'll get it right I'll get it right [Verse 1] Oh, sweet voice on the phone You sound so alone 'Cause you couldn't be wasted Yet, all that I ever was To you I am I'm less than a man That slowly changes out of phase And I don't know why it is It's an ever-changing simple thing that I miss [Verse 2] While watching TV, take in what you see So your death is painless When all that I ever was returns again I'm all that I am And I'll get it right When I get it right 'Cause I'll get it right When I get it right [Outro] But I'm slowly changing out of phase And I don't know why it is It's an ever-changing simple thing that I know But don't know why it is That I'm longing for a sweet embrace, which I miss
