George Martin - The Other Me lyrics

[Verse 1] I know I was a crazy fool For treating you the way I did But something took hold of me And I acted like a dustbin lid I didn't give second thought To what the consequence might be I really wouldn't be surprised If you were trying to find another me [Chorus] 'Cause the other me would rather be the glad one The other me would rather play the fool I want to be the kind of me That doesn't let you down as a rule [Verse 2] I know it doesn't take a lot To have a little self-control But every time that I forgot Well I landed in another hole But everytime you pull me out I find it harder not to see That we can build a better life If I can try to find the other me [Chorus] The other me would rather be the glad one Yeah, the other me would rather play the fool Said I want to be the kind of me That doesn't let you down as a rule [Bridge] But if I ever hurt you Well you know that it's not real It's no easy living by yourself So imagine how I feel [Verse 3] I wish that I could take it back I'd like to make a different mood And if you let me try again I'll have a better attitude Well I know that one and one make two And that's what I want us to be I really would appreciate it If you'd help me find the other me [Chorus] The other me would rather be the glad one The other me would rather play the fool But I want to be the kind of me That doesn't let you down as a rule
