I wish you could see me now 00:21

I wish I could show you how 00:23

I'm not who I was 00:25

I used to be mad at you 00:31

A little on the hurt side too 00:33

But I'm not who I was 00:35

I found my way around 00:41

To forgiving you some time ago 00:44

But I never got to tell you so 00:49

00:58

I found us in a photograph 01:07

I saw me and I had to laugh 01:09

You know, I'm not who I was 01:11

You were there, you were right above me 01:16

And I wonder if you ever loved me 01:19

Just for who I was 01:21

When the pain came back again 01:27

Like a bitter friend, it was all that I could do 01:30

To keep myself from blaming you 01:35

01:39

I reckon it's a funny thing 01:53

I figured out I can sing 01:55

Now I'm not who I was 01:57

I write about love and such 02:03

Maybe 'cause I want it so much 02:05

I'm not who I was 02:07

I was thinking maybe I 02:14

I should let you know that I am not the same 02:16

But I never did forget your name, hello 02:21

02:30

Well, the thing I find most amazing 02:49

In amazing grace is the chance to give it out 02:52

Maybe that's what love is all about 02:57

I wish you could see me now 03:04

I wish I could show you how 03:07

I'm not who I was 03:09

Lyrics:

[English]

I wish you could see me now

I wish I could show you how

I'm not who I was

I used to be mad at you

A little on the hurt side too

But I'm not who I was

I found my way around

To forgiving you some time ago

But I never got to tell you so

...

I found us in a photograph

I saw me and I had to laugh

You know, I'm not who I was

You were there, you were right above me

And I wonder if you ever loved me

Just for who I was

When the pain came back again

Like a bitter friend, it was all that I could do

To keep myself from blaming you

...

I reckon it's a funny thing

I figured out I can sing

Now I'm not who I was

I write about love and such

Maybe 'cause I want it so much

I'm not who I was

I was thinking maybe I

I should let you know that I am not the same

But I never did forget your name, hello

...

Well, the thing I find most amazing

In amazing grace is the chance to give it out

Maybe that's what love is all about

I wish you could see me now

I wish I could show you how

I'm not who I was

...
