I ran into you last night at our favourite bar
I didn't even have to ask you how you are
'Cause I've seen all the pictures of your brand new life
And the girl you've been saying's gonna be your wife
So I take a deep breath and I wait for the worst part

Say she's beautiful
Like she walked right out of your dreams
She ain't cynical
She never fights or disagrees
Well, I know you and what you need
And she can't give you everything
'Cause there's one thing she'll never be
She ain't me

'Cause I know you better than you know yourself
I know the secrets that you never told no one else
And I bet she only sips on pretty pink drinks
And never quite says what she really thinks
I wish I could say that I wish you well

When you say she's beautiful
Like she walked right out of your dreams
She ain't cynical
She never fights or disagrees
Well, I know you and what you need
And she can't give you everything
There's one thing she'll never be
She ain't me, no
She ain't me

Like the kinda girl that you cut out of a magazine
I'm a little bit rough and I'm known to cause a scene
I know you miss it when you see me
True love ain't always easy
And perfect ain't as perfect as it seems

You say she's beautiful
Like she walked right out of your dreams
She ain't cynical
She never fights or disagrees
'Cause I know you and what you need
And she can't give you everything
'Cause there's one thing she'll never be
Well, she ain't me, no, no, no, no
She ain't me, no, no, no
She ain't me
