That's Not Me (vocal only) Songtext
von The Beach Boys

I had to prove that I could make it alone now
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 would 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
