[Verse 1]
There you were, you're gonna make a scene
Comparin' yourself to the person you were at age seventeen
I put my suit on and I tied my tie
I look like someone I don't recognize
[Chorus]
And it would be so much easier to love you
If you could only see yourself like me
And wouldn't it hurt much less when you were lonely
If you could only see yourself like me?
[Verse 2]
I found a letter, "Dear future me
I promise I'll take care of the person we'll both be eventually
I'll pick up painting, oh, oh, and I'll join the gym"
I can't shake the feeling that I'll be happy by the time I'm him
[Chorus]
And it would be so much easier to love you
If you could only see yourself like me
And wouldn't it hurt much less when you were lonely
If you could only see yourself like me?
[Bridge]
Please be disappointed in me
Isn't it obvious I wasn't who you think?
There you were, you're gonna make a scene
Comparin' yourself to the person you were at age seventeen
I put my suit on and I tied my tie
I look like someone I don't recognize
[Chorus]
And it would be so much easier to love you
If you could only see yourself like me
And wouldn't it hurt much less when you were lonely
If you could only see yourself like me?
[Verse 2]
I found a letter, "Dear future me
I promise I'll take care of the person we'll both be eventually
I'll pick up painting, oh, oh, and I'll join the gym"
I can't shake the feeling that I'll be happy by the time I'm him
[Chorus]
And it would be so much easier to love you
If you could only see yourself like me
And wouldn't it hurt much less when you were lonely
If you could only see yourself like me?
[Bridge]
Please be disappointed in me
Isn't it obvious I wasn't who you think?
