Aren't You

I learned from my parents
The same way most of us do
About the most important things
And certain other truths
But the further that I go in life
The less sure I become
My path is the good one
If what's right
Is what I've done

Doubt comes naturally to me
With faith or fact I persevere
I often can't find either
Nothing but my fears
And if there is more to life
Than does meet the eye
While I walk upon this Earth
I hope
That's what I'll find

I know who I am
And I know that I'm good
I think you'd say that yourself
If you only would
Bring yourself to be with me
For enough time that you could
Find the words you know are true
And let them
Break on through

Sure I'm not perfect
But aren't I better than most
Wrapped onto your finger
Becoming my own ghost
Is this place any different now
Than it was long ago
Are there fewer now that can romance
Like Juliet and Romeo
And Romeo

Are you the one who'll love me
Is there really only one of your kind
Who knows not everything
Will be fine all of the time
You're the first thing I think about
And the first thing I see
Each morning when I wake up
And each night when I dream

I know who I am
And I know that I'm good
I think you'd say that yourself
If you only would
Bring yourself to be with me
For enough time that you could
Find the words you know are true
And let them break on through
Break on through

Are you the only one
Who'll love me like I'll love you
Will you understand
Just what I need from you
Will you be right next to me
With me there next to you
Each morning when I wake up
And each night when I dream
When I dream

Are you the only one
Who'll love me like I'll love you
And will you understand me
And just what I need from you
Will you be right next to me
With me there next to you
Each morning when I wake up
And each night when I dream
When I dream
