Lyrics and translation
Original
I'm not the person that you thought I was.
I'm not the one you thought you knew.
I'd do most anything to make you think that I'm the one.
I'd do it all to get to you.
You see me as the perfect complement.
You think that I'm someone to choose.
You see me in a way that makes me want to reinvent a person I could turn into.
Give me the love and I'll tell you when I wanna come.
Give me the love and I'll tell you when I wanna run.
Blue strides are calling and I can't stop falling.
Give me the love and I'll tell you when I wanna run.
I don't look like myself in photographs.
Long days of time have been unkind.
I miss the you, the one that makes me want to redefine.
I'm not the one you fell into.
I'm not the one, the one for you.
Give me the love and I'll tell you when I wanna come.
Give me the love and I'll tell you when I wanna run.
Blue strides are calling and I can't stop falling.
Give me the love and I'll tell you when I wanna run.
Give me the love and I'll tell you when I wanna come.
Give me the love and I'll tell you when I wanna run.
Blue strides are calling and I can't stop falling.
Give me the love and I'll tell you when I wanna run.
