Lyle Lovett - Here I Am lyrics

Your rating:
I'm the guy who sits next to you
And reads the newspaper over your
     shoulder
Wait
Don't turn the page
I'm not finished
Life is so uncertain

Here I am
Yes it's me
Take my hand
And you'll see
Here I am
Yes it's true
All I want
Girl is you

Given that true intellectual and
     emotional compatibility
Are at the very least difficult
If not impossible to come by
We could always opt for the more
     temporal gratification
Of sheer physical attraction
That wouldn't make you a shallow
     person
Would it

Here I am
Yes it's me
Take my hand
And you'll see
Here I am
Yes it's true
All I want
Girl is you

If Ford is to Chevrolet
What Dodge is to Chrysler
What Corn Flakes are to Post Toasties
What the clear blue sky is to the deep
     blue sea
What Hank Williams is to Neil
     Armstrong
Can you doubt we were made for each
other

Here I am
Yes it's me
Take my hand
And you'll see
Here I am
Yes it's true
All I want
Girl is you

Look
I understand too little too late
I realize there are things you say
     and do
You can never take back
But what would you be if you didn't
     even try
So after a lot of thought
I'd like to reconsider
Please
If it's not too late
Make it a cheeseburger

Here I am
Yes it's me
Take my hand
And you'll see
Here I am
Yes it's true
All I want
Girl is you
