Who You Thought I Was

(album: Your Life Is A Record - 2020)

I used to wanna be a cowboy
A shadow in a sunset
That's why I started smoking cigarettes
I used to wanna be a cowboy

I used to wanna be Elvis
Drive a pink Cadillac car
That's why I learned to play the guitar
I used to wanna be Elvis

There's a lot of things I used to wanna do 'til I met you

Now I wanna be honest
Now I wanna be better
Now I wanna be the me I should've been
When we were together
I wanna be at least
Almost close to worth your love
I wanna be who
You thought I was

I used to wanna join the circus
Hang around with the freak show
Wish I'd learned to walk a tight rope
I used to wanna join the circus

Used to wanna stay eighteen
I used to wanna an airstream
With a lawn chair tumbleweed view
Now I just want you

And I wanna be honest
Now I wanna be better
I wanna be the me I should've been
When we were together
I wanna be at least
Almost close to worth your love
I wanna be who
You thought I was

There's a lot of things I used to wanna be
Til you stopped loving me

Now I wanna be steady
I wanna be forever
Now I wanna be the me I could've been
When we were together
I wanna be at least
Almost close to worth your love
I wanna be who
You thought I was

Yeah, I wanna be who
You thought I was
