Here's What I Want

We've gotta talk

What's this I see?
You've been lyin' to impress me
Made it your goal
To try and second-guess me
Hopin' to see
What I want you to be
Well, here's what I want
Yeah, well, here's what I want

I want you to be you
Not who you think I want you to
You are always best when you are real
Be you, it is the smartest thing to do
I'm not up for lovin' a lie
Just be you, or it'll all come back on you
If the face you show us isn't true

Now what's this I hear?
You've been changin' to surprise me
Givin' up things you love to try and tantalize me
Well, you've got my heart
So don't work so hard
'Cause here's what I want
Yeah, now here's what I want

I want you to
To be you
Not who you think I want you to
You are always best when you are real
Be you it is the smartest thing to do
I'm not up for lovin' a lie
Aw, be you, or it'll all come back on you
If the face you show us isn't true

Now if there are things
You really wanna change
That's fine
I've always loved to see you grow
Just understand
I love exactly who you are
And my love for you will always shine
Always shine

I want you to be you
Not who you think I want you to
You are always best when you are real
Be you it is the smartest thing to do
No one wants to love a lie
Be you
Or it'll all come back on you
If the face you show us

Isn't true
Isn't true
