"Jack Of All Trades" lyrics

"Jack Of All Trades"

Look me in the eyes
Tell me how to find my way through
I know there's more to being confident
Than finding out how to talk to you...

But it's not working out again
And I keep over-analyzing what I said
I'm not the person you'd expect of me yet

I haven't earned it, no
I haven't shown you yet
No, I haven't shown you yet

Maybe this is history
Ready to repeat again
Maybe this is what I need
To keep me from getting in over my head

So don't act so surprised
No I'm not perfect
I'll keep it all inside, 'Cause you're so worth the time
Consider this the reason that I'll stay
For whatever you throw my way

Yet we're still breaking in
The feeling of letting it out
So I'll retain my balance between
Letting go and just running my mouth

Maybe this is history
Ready to repeat again
Maybe this is what I need
To keep me from getting in over my head

Well baby it's just all a game
And I've folded on a winning hand
Maybe this is just my way
Of waking up to begin again

I know it's not that wonderful
To be your best on your own
But right now I don't
I don't know where else I'd rather go

She knows not what this picture holds
Or who she's fated to sleep alone
But maybe this is right
And it's just not the time yet to say hello

No, it's just not the time yet to say hello
(And it's just not the time yet to say hello)

So once it's right to say you know
That you're everything but on your own
Maybe then we'll change the face
Of wherever we're meant to go

Maybe this is history (Maybe it's right)
Ready to repeat again (And it's not the time yet)
Maybe this is what I need
To keep me from getting in over my head

Well baby it's just all a game
And I've folded on a winning hand
Maybe this is just my way
Of waking up to begin again, To begin again
