As I search for a home And a place to belong I find it hard to fit in I meet lots of pretty girls In this fantasy world Waiting for their turn to shine So I try to be Cindi In hopes that they'd notice But I wasn't their cup of tea It's so lonely when I'm only being me Who's that girl in the mirror With hair like a rock star?
She wants to dance but she has cold feet Her confidence is low So much talent but who'll know? When she's afraid to follow her dreams So I talk to her heart and made up her mind That I gotta except her for me But it's so lonely when I'm only being me Ooh, you gotta be you And I've gotta be me Only, only be me
