[Original]
I'd rather be tall
I'd rather be smart
I'd rather be sure you know I care
Wherever you go
Whatever you start
I'd rather be sure you know I'm there
I'd rather I always be a part of whatever you do
I'd rather be me with you

Wherever we go
I already trust
I'd know what to do if it were us
I'd know what to say
I'd know how to be
I'd know your entire syllabus
I can't think of any other thing in the world I would rather do
If I could be
I'd rather be me with you

[Extended Part]
If I could be me
I'd know how to see
See why'd choose a pain like me
The damage inside, a mountain to climb
I'd rather you stay safe, far behind
If I could be me then maybe I would do more than drag you down
I cannot be me with me
Too selfish to leave, but hope you will stay
Endure life together, come what may
I promise to cling, to comfort and sing
No matter what temperatures may bring
I am a mistake, and people like me just don't get lucky twice
If I could love me, I'd learn how to love like you
