Here I am, finally after all this waiting,
I can't believe it's really you,
You're just like I'd always imagined,
Better still than I imagined…

Oh, what a waste of time it's been,
Chasing this dream, making my thoughts all about you,
I never had a fight in this to win,
I just thought I found love and followed you blindly, but

You're not the man that I'd hoped,
You're not the same as I imagined,
You're not at all what I thought you to be,
When you look at me, what do you see?
Am I not more to you than a girl from a movie?

My bad, I made you out to be a god,
Not without fault, but still light years apart from everybody else,
Damn, I just can't make it make any sense,
And it hurts to embrace this falling from grace with my eyes open, seeing

I'm not the girl you had hoped,
I'm not the same as you imagined,
I'm not at all who you thought I'd be,
When you look at me, what do you see?
Am I not more to you than a girl from a movie?

Here I am, just me with all my imperfections,
Showing myself bare to you,
Not meeting all your expectations,
But better than your expectations,
Not that you will ever know…
