  • I'm not the person that you thought I was
    I'm not the one you thought you knew
    I'd do most anything to make you think that I'm the one
    I'd do it all to get to you

    You see me as the perfect compliment
    You think that I'm someone to choose
    You see me in a way that makes me want to reinvent
    A person I could turn into

    Give me the love and I'll tell you when I wanna come
    Give me the love and I'll tell you when I wanna run
    Blue strides are callin' and I can't stop fallin'
    Give me the love and I'll tell you when I wanna run

    I don't look like myself in photographs
    Long days of time have been unkind
    I miss the you, the one that makes me want to redefine
    I'm not the one you fell into
    I'm not the one, the one for you

    Give me the love and I'll tell you when I wanna come
    Give me the love and I'll tell you when I wanna run
    Blue strides are calling and I can't stop fallin'
    Give me the love and I'll tell you when I wanna run

    Give me the love and I'll tell you when I'll wanna come
    Give me the love and I'll tell you when I'll wanna run
    Blue strides are calling and I can't stop fallin'
    Give me the love and I'll tell you when I'll wanna run Writer/s: Anthony Kiedis, Chad Gaylord Smith, John Anthony Frusciante, Michael Peter Balzary
