In a world full of people
With beautiful souls
All looking for someone
To hold when they're cold
I was hiding my fears Hadn't cried for years
Posing for the camera
Smiling away my tears
But I was good on my own
Still you found me somehow

But I work too much
And I never dress up
I drink to stay calm
Only open up in my songs
And I don't like to be outside
And I prefer to decide
So in a world full of people
I still can't believe
That you chose me

Of all the places I've been
And all the people I've met
Your smile is the only thing
That I can't forget
And now I'm writing this song
With big words and cliches
But I want to write it down
So it can't be erased
Love will not heal me
I know

But you got me feeling so strong

Even though I work too much
And I never dress up
I drink to stay calm
Only open up in my songs
And I don't like to be outside
And I prefer to decide
So in a world full of people
I still can't believe
That you chose

All those days when I'm out on the road
The nights you're alone
I'm out playing rock and roll
Maybe someday you'll want something more
But baby for now I am sure

That you love how I
I work too much
And I never dress up
I drink to stay calm
Only open up in my songs
And I don't like to be outside
And I prefer to decide
So in a world full of people
I still can't believe
That you chose me
