Sara Bareilles When He Sees Me Lyrics

I stick with real things
Usually facts and figures
When information's in its place
I minimize the guessing game
guess what
I don't like guessing games or when I feel things
before I know the feelings
How am I supposed to operate
if I'm just tossed around by fate
Like on an unexpected date
With a stranger who might
Talk too fast
Or ask me questions about myself
before I've decided that
He can ask me questions about myself
He might sit too close
or call the waiter by his first name
Or eat Oreos
but eat the cookie before the cream
but what scares me the most...
What scares me the most...
Is what if when he sees me
What if he doesn't like it
What if he runs the other way
and I can't hide from it
What happens then if
When he knows me
He's only disappointed
What if I give myself away to only
get it given back
I couldn't live with that
So I'm just fine inside my shell-shaped mind
This way I get the best view
So when he sees me I want him to
