Tony Asher - That's Not Me lyrics

[Verse 1: Mike Love] I had to prove that I could make it alone now But that's not me I wanted to show how independent I'd grown now But that's not me [Pre-Chorus 1: Mike Love, Brian Wilson] I could try to be big in the eyes of the world What matters to me is what I could be to just one girl [Chorus 1: Mike Love, Brian Wilson] I'm a little bit scared cause I haven't been home in a long time You needed my love and I know that I left at the wrong time [Verse 2: Mike Love] My folks when I wrote them Told 'em what I was up to said that's not me I went through all kinds of changes Took a look at myself and said that's not me [Pre-Chorus 2: Mike Love, Brian Wilson] I miss my pad and the places I've known And every night as I lay there alone I would dream [Chorus 2: Mike Love, Brian Wilson] I once had a dream so I packed up and split for the city I soon found out that my lonely life wasn't so pretty I'm glad I went now I'm that much more sure that we're ready I once had a dream so I packed up and split for the city I soon found out that my lonely life wasn't so pretty I once had a dream so I packed up and split for the city I soon found out that my lonely life wasn't so pretty
