Get it right everyday

Do it perfect and they will love me

They will want me back

If I make no mistakes

A performance that's perfect for the crowd

You'll be proud of me right

But you don't need me a stage to love me

No matter the place your heart will be true

And when I'm afraid that I am not

Good enough and I don't know what to do

Truth is

I don't have to perform for you

Cue the lights center stage

It's the moment that they will see me

They will want me back

Every word that I say

Every note must be just right for the crowd

You'll be proud of me right

But you don't need me a stage to love me

No matter the place your heart will be true

And when I'm afraid that I am not good enough

I will keep my eyes on you

In spite of mistakes you want me

Rid me of shame and give me your truth

And when I'm afraid that

I am not good enough and I don't know what to do

Truth is

I don't have to perform for you

I don't have to perform for you

For you

And you don't need me a stage to love me

No matter the place your heart will be true

And when I'm afraid that I am not good enough

I will keep my eyes on you

In spite of mistakes you want me

Rid me of shame and you give me your truth

And when I'm afraid that I am not

Good enough and I don't know what to do

Truth is

I don't have to perform for you
