I've lived life in a single room
Hiding my scars from the moon
I dream my dreams in the light

Rehearse the lines I already know
Basking in the tv's glow
And pray that tonight is the night

Oh, there's gotta be more than this
A future hanging on a stranger's kiss
Could it be I'm not so alone

I'm someone special
I'm just in disguise
I may not be perfect
In everyone's eyes
It may not be tomorrow
But I still believe
There's someone special
Waiting out there for me

I guess the joke hasn't hit me yet
Cause I'm still waiting on my juliet
She must be held up somewhere

Ooh, she will be the air I breathe
She'll come for good and never want to leave
And I'll love her only, I swear

People say there must be something wrong
For me to be all alone so long
And their words hit me like a stone

I'm someone special
I'm just in disguise
I may not be perfect
In everyone's eyes
It may not be tomorrow
But I still believe
There's someone special
Waiting out there for me

Lying in bed in a cold, cold sweat
Dreaming 'bout women I'll never get
I won't always be sleeping alone

I'm someone special
I'm just in disguise
I may not be perfect
In everyone's eyes
It may not be tomorrow
But I still believe
There's someone special
Waiting out there for me
