She Don’t Love Me for Me

[Verse 1]
She says that she loves me
But she don’t love me for me
She says that she wants me
But she don’t want what she sees
She don’t want me breathing
The way that I believe
She says
“baby
You could be better”
But this is all I can be

[Chorus]
So I guess I have to say goodbye
Goodbye
Goodbye
Goodbye
(ohh) I’m walking out that door tonight
Goodbye
Goodbye
Goodbye
You want the man from your dreams
I’m just the man in your seat
So I guess I have to say goodbye
Goodbye
Goodbye
Goodbye

[Verse 2]
She says that she needs me
But she don’t need me for me
She’s tracing her picture
Trying to color me in clean
She wants me sharper in a suit
But I’m frayed at the seams
She’s in love with her reflection
Not the mess that is me

[Chorus]
So I guess I have to say goodbye
Goodbye
Goodbye
Goodbye
(yeah) I’m leaving all your someday nights
Goodbye
Goodbye
Goodbye
You want the man from your dreams
I’m just the man at your feet
So I guess I have to say goodbye
Goodbye
Goodbye
Goodbye

[Bridge]
You can keep your painted heaven
You can keep your perfect king
I’m a barroom kind of sinner
I’m a broken wedding ring
You don’t have to learn to love me
Like this
Like this
I’ll just fade into the doorway
Like a song you won’t miss

[Chorus]
So I guess I have to say goodbye
Goodbye
Goodbye
Goodbye
Let your dream man hold you tight
Goodbye
Goodbye
Goodbye
You want the man from your dreams
I’m just a ghost on your street
So I guess I have to say goodbye
Goodbye
Goodbye
Goodbye (goodbye)
