I can see you come to gossip and they tell me so and so
But there's not a thing about him I don't already know
I guess you think I'm crazy but it keeps him here with me
And I only see the things I wanna see
I only see the things I wanna see where he's concerned
It wouldn't do my heart no good believe in what I've learned
I can't face the truth about the man he'll never be
So I only see the things I wanna see
[ piano ]
I only see the things I wanna see where he's concerned
It wouldn't do my heart much good believe in what I've learned
But it's worth all my heartaches when I have him here with me
So I only see the things I wanna see yes I only see the things I wanna see
