I'm Not Them

You go through guy after guy

Each one worse than the last

You live your life petrified

Try'n to run away from your past

But see I'm not like all the others

I'll always love you more than him

Give me a chance, just one dance

To show you that I'm not them

 

I'm not them

I'm not them

I can love you with all my heart

I can teach you where to start

But baby I'm not them

I'm not them

No not them

 

You got "go away" on your forehead

To cover up your shame and pain

But if you'd take it down just one day

I could show you how I'm not the same

You need some one who can love you

Just for who you are

Some one who can care for you

Who can mend your broken heart

 

I'm not them

I'm not them

I can love you with all my heart

I can teach you where to start

But baby I'm not them

I'm not them

No not them

 

I want to be your Prince Charming

To always be there for you

But you wont give me that chance

Because of other jerks and fools

 

I'm not them

I'm not them

I can love you with all my heart

I can teach you where to start

But baby I'm not them

I'm not them

No not them

 

I will always treat you right

If you don't try you'll never know

I wont try to go so fast

Babe it's fine to take it slow

I want to be the man in your life

I'm standing here arms open wide

I want to always be in your corner

Always standing at your right side

 

Cause Baby I'm not them

I'm not them

I can love you with all my heart

I can teach you where to start

But baby I'm not them

I'm not them

I'm not them

No not them
