ME WITH YOU

Self explanatory. We all carry a few different versions of ourselves...Hopefully we all have people around whom the guard can come down.

Note for the geeks - the last chorus name checks "Tim" by The Replacements, "Trust" by Low and "Blue" by Joni Mitchell, all of which are fave albums of mine.

LYRICS

Theres a me that smiles too quickly
It's almost like a point of pride
There's a me that must fill silence
There's a me that needs to hide

There's a me whose mind goes wandering
To those worst case scenarios
There's a me I pretend to be
Couple of me’s I still don't know

But I’m used to ducking and diving
Throwing the odd shape or two
I can be me when I play sweet music
I can be me with you

There's a me that gets judgemental
There's a me that's too headstrong
Act hellbent and so self righteous
Long after I've been proven wrong

Hashtag manchild
There's a me who needs applause
There's a me who loves a rebel
With or without a cause

But baby look past the disguises
They're what it takes to get through
I can be me when I play sweet music
I can be me with you

I can be me listening to my boys
Riffing on their point of view
I can be me when I hear sweet music
I can be me with you

They say what you see isnt always what you get
But it's fun looking for clues
Easy's over rated, lets get complicated
Truth be told there are a fair few yous

There's a me who looks too closely
Late at night thinks too deep
Analyses agonises
When someone his age should just sleep

I can be me lying in your arms
When you're starting to do what you do
I can be me when I play sweet music
I can be me with you

I can be me reading Jack in the half light
Bingeing on Tim, Trust or Blue
I can be me when I play sweet music
I can be me with you
