Just Like Me

Lyrics

[Verse 1] I know the way they turn when you walk in Like every room already knows your name You make a plain Tuesday look expensive I fold my sleeves and try to look the same [Pre-Chorus] I can name a hundred things you carry That I could never learn to hold But when you stay beside me after everybody leaves You make the quiet feel like gold [Chorus] I really get you, why can't you be just like me? Not the face on every phone, not the one they all want to see You're popular, handsome, sweet and cute I'm just ordinary, what else could I prove? If you could see yourself through my eyes tonight You'd know normal is enough when you make my world feel right [Verse 2] You remember how I take my coffee You save the seat with the broken arm You laugh at all my badly timed stories Like being known is its own kind of charm [Pre-Chorus] Maybe I keep score with all your bright things While hiding every part I doubt But you never ask me to become somebody You only ask me to stay around [Chorus] I really get you, why can't you be just like me? Not the face on every phone, not the one they all want to see You're popular, handsome, sweet and cute I'm just ordinary, what else could I prove? If you could see yourself through my eyes tonight You'd know normal is enough when you make my world feel right [Bridge] I don't need a crowd to call you special I don't need a mirror to know it's true You keep looking for a better version While the best thing here is you [Final Chorus] I really get you, why can't you be just like me? A little unsure, a little scared, exactly where you're meant to be You're popular, handsome, sweet and cute I'm just normal, and I still choose you If you could see yourself through my eyes tonight You'd know ordinary can be extraordinary when it holds you right [Outro] So stop trying to be somebody new I like the person standing here with me—you
