That's Not Me (1st lead vocals overdub) Songtext
von The Beach Boys

I had to prove that I could make it alone
But that′s not me
I wanted to show how independent I'd grown now
But that′s not me

I could try to be big in the eyes of the world
What matters to me is what I could be to just one girl

I'm a little bit scared
'Cause I haven′t been home in a long time
You needed my love
And I know that I left at the wrong time
My folks when I wrote them
Told ′em what I was up, to said that's not me


I went through all kinds of changes
Took a look at myself and said that′s not me
I miss my pad and the places I've known
And every night as I lay there alone, I will dream

I once had a dream
So I packed up and split for the city
I soon found out that my lonely life wasn′t so pretty
I'm glad I went now I′m that much more sure that we're ready

I once had a dream
So I packed up and split for the city
I soon found out that my lonely life wasn't so pretty
I once had a dream
So I packed up and split for the city
I soon found out that my lonely life wasn′t so pretty
