Lyrics
V1
So you're not Superstar
You're so close but there's no cigar
Will you come completely clean?
Will you help me sift through this debris (and)
Chorus
Show me how to love you (3X)
Cuz I just want to learn (2X)
I, I think I could learn...
V2
You keep saying it's just too hard
Way too soon to take up arms
And maybe we weren't meant to be
But maybe nothing's mean to be
So be with me (and)
Repeat Chorus
Bridge 1
Do you think I could learn?
Do want me to learn?
Cuz I think I could learn
I think I could learn...
Instrumental Bridge over Verse
Repeat Chorus
Bridge 2 (to the end of song)
Do you think I could learn?
Do want me to learn?
Do you think (that) I'd be good?
Do want me to be good (to you)?
And will we be deliberate?
Or will we be unconscious?
Are you gonna tell the truth?
Cuz I think I want the truth (from you)
And I know you think I'm needy
Well maybe you're too moody!
Do you think we'll ever change?
Am I gonna heal your pain?
Will you ever open up?
