Lyrics

Prelude

I'm insecure Of that I'm sure Don't need a counselor or seminar to see And even when it's only you and me There seems to be Somethin' that you keep behind your teeth You think I would know How this would go But maybe that's exactly what I wanted No need to hope Count to three You get what you see And every time you go out here thinkin' Maybe it's me Mmm... You think I'd know better by now
