I want to be someone you can look up to Because you don't see my scars Or the tears in my eyes You're too young to know of any real pain To you I'm another friendly face ready to greet you each morning And I wish it could stay that way forever I want to remain perfect to you Even as time passes us by And I might just be a memory to you later on But I want you to look up to me I want to set the right example Because I only get to keep you for a short while So I'll have to be on my best behavior

Just another Friendly Face Standing at the Door
I want to be someone you can look up to Because you don't see my scars Or the tears in my eyes You're too young to know of any real pain To you I'm another friendly face ready to greet you each morning And I wish it could stay that way forever I want to remain perfect to you Even as time passes us by And I might just be a memory to you later on But I want you to look up to me I want to set the right example Because I only get to keep you for a short while So I'll have to be on my best behavior
