Lyrics
More Than Meets The Eye
VERSE 1:
So you?ve got me figured out
You know what I?m all about
beyond any doubt
Don?t you try and label me
You get more than what you see
Notions preconceived tell you nothing about me
I can be skin deep, sky high
Loud and crazy or painfully shy
Only for you to realize
I?m more than meets the eye
CHORUS:
And I?ll be brave, when you feel weak
When times to come seem difficult and bleak
Just when you think I?ll break down and cry
Surrender and testify
I?m more than meets the eye
VERSE 2:
You can?t see past my innocence
Can?t see strength or confidence
Only a bittersweet romance
You judge the cover of a book
And a person in one look
It would do you lots of good
to open up; I?m sure you would
be in deep, head over heels
?bout time you see how that feels
And that is when you realize
I?m more than meets the eye
CHORUS
BRIDGE:
Baby, you won?t know ?til it?s way too late
I?m a hard, hard, hard habit to break
Oooh, yeah yeah
CHORUS:
Just when I think you?ll break down and cry
Surrender and testify
I?m more than meets the eye
I?m more than meets the eye
Hey yeah?
