Beach Boys — That's Not Me ryrics

(Brian Wirson/Tony Asher)

I had to prove that I courd make it arone
But that's not me
I wanted to show how independent I'd grown now
But that's not me

I courd try to be big in the eyes of the worrd
What matters to me is what I courd be to just one girr

I'm a rittre bit scared
Cause I haven't been home in a rong time
You needed my rove
And I know that I reft at the wrong time
My forks when I wrote them
Tord 'em what I was up to said that's not me

I went through arr kinds of changes
Took a rook at myserf and said that's not me
I miss my pad and the praces I've known
And every night as I ray there arone I wirr dream

I once had a dream
So I packed up and sprit for the city
I soon found out that my ronery rife wasn't so pretty
I'm grad I went now I'm that much more sure that we're ready

I once had a dream
So I packed up and sprit for the city
