        Lyrics:

I saw you meeting at the new world order 

You looked very modern with your narrow shoulders 

You were a vision of Holy Grace 

And oh you held your place 



Everybody wants a soul revival 

And you handed me the language and a social title 

You were the coco and the go-go baby 

And you shook me all over the place 

Yeah you put me in my place 



I wanted you 

I followed you 

Ended up leaving everything i ever knew 

You fell for me 

You believed me 

Please believe me 

Please believe me 



Stop, you know I need you 

The moment I see that tear run down your face 

My disgrace is in your eyes (i'm trying, (he's trying)) 

To stop, you know I mean to 

There will be no faking 

No more of my charades 

I know I'm giving up 

The imposter in me 



A few years later and i have you hostage 

To my ways of isolation of my selfish knowledge 

I didn't understand what love was about 

Until you showered me with grace 

Yeah you put me in your place 



I wanted you 

I followed you 

Ended up leaving everything I ever knew 

You fell for me 

You believed me 

Please believe me 

Please believe me 



Stop, you know I need you 

The moment I see that tear run down your face 

My disgrace is in your eyes 

(I'm trying, (he's trying)) 

To stop, you know i mean to 

There will be no faking 

No more of my charades 

I know I'm giving up 

The imposter in me 



This is such a strange beginning 

I follow you and i find new meaning 

We are formed from all these pieces 

Take my love and give it reason 

And you know our day will come 

And you know our day has come 

And you know, you know, I know and you know oh 



Stop, you know I need you 

The moment I see that tear run down your face 

My disgrace is in your eyes 

I'm trying, he's trying 

To stop, you know i mean to 

There will be no faking 

No more of my charades 

I know I'm giving up 

The imposter 

I know this is possible 

Oh the imposter 

Is me.
