Lyrics I Could Be - Richard Neumann

I Could Be

If I, if I could lose this fear
Dive into the unknown arms wide open
Not wait for the perfect moment to appear
For me to be myself

Then you, you might start to see
The better part of me I've been hidin'
For what seems like an eternity, mmm

'Cause now it's getting to me
And it's starting to consume me
Not showin' you the best that I got
I wanna make the change
So you see me in a true way
Then maybe you could give me a shot
And fall for the person I know I could be
You might love the person I know I could be

But I let others convince me
That I needed to be different, be someone else
'Cause they said I wasn't in your league
And so I played the part

But I, just want to be true
'Cause behind all the pretendin' is honesty
And I'm so in love with you, mmm

And now it's getting to me
And it's starting to consume me
Not showin' you the best that I got
I wanna make the change
So you see me in a true way
Then maybe you could give me a shot
And fall for the person I know I could be
You might love the person I know I could be

All that holds me back
From a better life
That is more meant for me
Is if I can't be real
It's all on me, It's all on me

Oh, now it's getting to me
And it's starting to consume me
Not showin' you the best that I got
I wanna make the change
So you see me in a true way
Then maybe you could give me a shot
And fall for the person I know I could be
You might love the person I know I could be
I know I could be, yeah, I know I could be
You might love the person I know I could be
I know I could be
