Just Be
By Jessica Bromwich
[verse 1]
When we meet, I want to know,
The real you, not all this crap on show.
Don't love bomb me and pretend,
you're someone else.
The truth always comes out,
you can't hide forever,
However much you try,
with this cruel endeavour.
[chorus]
Just be real, don't waste our time,
No need to be dishonest, untruthful or lie.
Life's short, don't you see?
Pretending to be my knight in shining armour,
it's not how it's meant to be.
Pretending to be my knight in shining armour,
it's not how it's meant to be.
[verse 2]
If we both pretend to be others,
how will we know we're true lovers?
I want a friend, I want a lover,
Don't you want this too, without all the bother.....
Of opening our eyes to a lengthy mistake,
Something that has cost our time and is fake.
Let's be real, let's be true,
Let's explore the possibilities,
without coming out feeling blue.
[chorus]
Just be real, don't waste our time,
No need to be dishonest, untruthful or lie.
Life's short, don't you see?
Pretending to be my knight in shining armour,
it's not how it's meant to be.
Pretending to be my knight in shining armour,
it's not how it's meant to be.
A body builder, Casanova? just words so you can win me over.
A body builder, Casanova? just words so you can win me over.
Just be you and stop the charade,
I've had enough of being played.
[verse 3]
I'll be honest, I'll be true,
But I need to know, the real you.
I don't care that you don't hit he gym,
I don't care that you don't drink beer, but gin.
Hiding the real you, will just make me doubt,
what's the truth is and what you are all about.
Just be you and I'll be me.....
So we can have an honest chance,
see what we could be......
[chorus]
Just be real, don't waste our time,
No need to be dishonest, untruthful or lie.
Life's short, don't you see?
Pretending to be my knight in shining armour,
it's not how it's meant to be.
Pretending to be my knight in shining armour,
it's not how it's meant to be.
[chorus]
Just be real, don't waste our time,
No need to be dishonest, untruthful or lie.
Life's short, don't you see?
Pretending to be my knight in shining armour,
it's not how it's meant to be.
Pretending to be my knight in shining armour,
it's not how it's meant to be.
