Why Can't Everyone Be Like You Lyrics

Tell me what you are really thinking

Don't pander around because you will only disappoint me

I'll be happy in the long run

If you talk to me straight

I know you do

But why can't everyone be like you

Why can't people say that they will not be there?

If only they told the truth, then I would not have to think less of them

But they don't

So I do

And then things change between us

In our minds at least

Why can't everyone be like you

It is up to them if they want to attend

As it sorts them into

Who I think are my friends

From the ones who really are

I don't care if they come

Just as long as they let me know

It's not hard to do

So why can't everyone be like you

We don't have to see each other every day

We have our own lives to lead

And naturally we have grown apart

Something I cannot stand is when people

Say that they are going, knowing full well that they will not

All in all

Too Many people

Say what they do not mean

It's not hard to do

But why can't everyone be like you

It's not hard to do

But why can't everyone be like you

I am done

With everyone

But

You
