Sara Bareilles - I *heart* you


Keep drinking coffee, stare me down across the table
While I look outside
SO MANY THINGS I’D SAY IF ONLY I WERE ABLE
BUT I JUST KEEP QUIET AND COUNT THE CARS THAT PASS BY

YOU’VE GOT OPINIONS, MAN

WE’RE ALL ENTITLED TO ‘EM, BUT I NEVER ASKED
So let me thank you for your time, and try not to waste anymore of mine
And get out of here fast

I HATE TO BREAK IT TO YOU BABE, BUT I’M NOT DROWNING
THERE’S NO ONE HERE TO SAVE

WHO CARES IF YOU DISAGREE?

YOU ARE NOT ME
Who made you king of anything?
SO YOU DARE TELL ME WHO TO BE?
Who died and made you king of anything?

YOU SOUND SO INNOCENT, ALL FULL OF GOOD INTENT
SWEAR YOU KNOW BEST
BUT YOU EXPECT ME TO JUMP UP ON BOARD WITH YOU
AND RIDE OFF INTO YOUR DELUSIONAL SUNSET

I’M NOT THE ONE WHO’S LOST WITH NO DIRECTION

BUT YOU’LL NEVER SEE
You’re so busy making maps with my name on them in all caps
YOU GOT THE TALKING DOWN, JUST NOT THE LISTENING

WHO CARES IF YOU DISAGREE?

YOU ARE NOT ME
Who made you king of anything?
SO YOU DARE TELL ME WHO TO BE?
Who died and made you king of anything?

ALL MY LIFE I’VE TRIED TO MAKE EVERYBODY HAPPY
WHILE I JUST HURT AND HIDE
WAITING FOR SOMEONE TO TELL ME IT’S MY TURN TO DECIDE

WHO CARES IF YOU DISAGREE?

YOU ARE NOT ME
Who made you king of anything?
SO YOU DARE TELL ME WHO TO BE?
Who died and made you king of anything?

WHO CARES IF YOU DISAGREE?
YOU ARE NOT ME
Who made you king of anything?
SO YOU DARE TELL ME WHO TO BE?
Who died and made you king of anything?

Let me hold your crown, babe.



(It goes without saying that I'm not talking about Shawn here, right?! Love you, babe! :)

I downloaded that song this weekend. LOVE it. Olivia belts it out in the car and it makes me giggle (hearing her say the words). ; )

A while back, before she was really popular, someone had told me that I looked like her. Curious to know what she looked like because obviously she was copying off of me....kidding...and found her music and fell instantly in love. I kind of look like her but not really. I wish I had her kick ass voice though.

oh! her voice! i agree. (although, to be told you look like her is quite a compliment, too!)
