From The Backseat Of Your Cab [I'll Sing This To You As You Go]

Look around at the models passing
I'm just another face in a crowd
Of flawless mannequins
I'm torn apart and mad at him...


When I think about the future
Where I'm going
Who I'm knowing
Why I'm listening
To what I'm listening to...
I think about going with you
Knowing no one but you
Listening to what you're listening to

I wanna be that girl in your dreams
I wanna be the one you need
The one you keep for years to come
The one that outshines everyone
I don't deserve what you've given to me
But I'll take it oh-so gladly
I'll never leave you if you'll never leave me
Baby...stay with me.


Look around at the clouds and the sky
Falling down on top of what I've built
To make myself look so much
Better than I am
I'm so torn apart
((Not mad at him))


When I fall down on the pavement
I wonder what my shame is
Why do I care that you see me weak
Scraped knees
Bruised ego
Why do I mind when you hear my voice crack
Trying not to sound so un-profound
Would you love me the same
If I had some other girl's name
I always wonder if I'm the one or
Just the one that took her place,
But baby, I'll take it
Because I--I...


I wanna be that girl in your dreams
I wanna be the one you need
The one you keep for years to come
The one that outshines everyone
I don't deserve what you've given to me
But I'll take it oh-so gladly
I'll never leave you if you'll never leave me
Baby...just stay with me
Baby, I can't see...would you stay
Stay.....with.....me?
