[Verse 1] It's hard enough to find the time to sleep It's easier to find the time to dream Another night spent too far from the stars Things Aren't Always What They Seem It's hard enough to find my place at home It's easier out here on my own A father's love is no such thing I know Things Aren't Always What They Seem [Chorus] Oh Things Aren't Always What They Seem Things Aren't Always What They Seem To be and I just hope your memory's proud of me I might cry myself to sleep And imagine that you're here with me [Verse 2] It's hard enough to find someone to trust It's easier to live life scared to love A mother's touch is going way too soon
Things Aren't Always What They Seem [Chorus] No Things Aren't Always What They Seem Things Aren't Always What They Seem To be and I just hope your memory's proud of me I might cry myself to sleep And imagine that you're here with me [Verse 3] You're not really that much different From me Oh I've got everything it seems but what I need Oh won't you tell me what you see when you look at me When you look at me [Chorus] No Things Aren't Always What They Seem Things Aren't Always What They Seem To be and I just hope your memory's proud of me I might cry myself to sleep And imagine that you're here with me
