I just ran into a few someone's today
Someone's that I never really knew
And I used to think how I had them all so figured out

But no, none of it's true 'cause I never knew you
and now THE TRUTH OF IT IS, I WANNA BE LIKE YOU
So hello, good friend,I WANNA BE NEXT TO YOU
For my head, for my heart, for what's true

So I'm burning the thoughts of the things that I once said
Because you tore down the walls that the world that has put inside my head
And I just get sick of the things that we think, we think we know

And no, none of it's true 'cause I never knew you
and now THE TRUTH OF IT IS, I WANNA BE LIKE YOU
So hello, good friend,I WANNA BE NEXT TO YOU
For my head, for my heart, for what's true

So TAKE ME and save me and change me and then make me
And EMBRACE ME and then brave my heart for you
No, no, 'cause I CANT GO ON WITHOUT YOU
And it's time for something never knowing, oh

And no, none of it's true 'cause I never knew you
and now THE TRUTH OF IT IS, I WANNA BE LIKE YOU
So hello, good friend,I WANNA BE NEXT TO YOU
For my head, for my heart, for what's true

And as they strolled along
My heart broke out in song
From all the things and the thoughts and assumptions that I had wrong
See now I'll be on my way to make this claim
I'll make it famous in every way
I'll make it stay when I will save it...

no, none of it's true 'cause I never knew you
and now THE TRUTH OF IT IS, I WANNA BE LIKE YOU
So hello, good friend,I WANNA BE NEXT TO YOU
For my head, for my heart, for what's true
