You laugh, I laugh, you cry, I cry
You walk, I walk, you try, I try
I feel what you feel; I can't escape your emotions
I walk stride for stride, living out your every motion
I'm in your world to keep myself safe, safe from the outside
I wrap your world around me, so nobody can find me, cause
I'm a chameleon, I'm a chameleon...
You wish, I wish, you dream, I dream
You fly, I fly, you crash, I crash
I change my mood to suit yours, like a mirror talking back to you
I'll never tell you what you don't wanna
Hear, I won't do anything you wouldn't do
I feel so safe and secure, when I hide in your shadows
I won't fall outta line,
I'll hold my breath, stay still, till they go away, cause
I'm a chameleon, I'm a chameleon...
I don't steal, I don't fake, I don't take, I imitate
I'm a chameleon, I'm a chameleon...
I don't steal, I don't fake, I don't take, I imitate
I don't steal, I don't fake, I don't take, I imitate
I don't steal, I don't fake, I don't take, I imitate
I don't steal, I don't fake, I don't take, I imitate
(I don't steal, I don't fake, I don't take, I imitate)
I need your colours to dress me, I need your smile so I can smile
I need your warmth to thaw my heart,
Even if it's just for a little while
You can be sad in front of me, you won't cry alone
I'll watch my tears fall, so I could feel anything at all
Just carry on as you would, but take me along with you
I need to watch and learn, how to do those things you do
Until I can think the way you think, until I can see what you see
Until I find the man in me, please just spend some time with me
I promise I won't cause trouble, if anything I will help
I'll feel your glee and your sorrow, cos I'm a chameleon
I know you may not always want me around, I'll understand believe me
You got your own life to live, when it's time I'll let you be
But please hear me, I need you as much as you need me
I'm only wishing for the best, I'm not like the rest
You can't scare me away, cos I'm here to stay
I won't run away, I'll be someone you need
I'm easy to manage; I don't pee on the rug
I keep my word, I clean up after myself
I don't lie, I don't cheat, I don't jaywalk, across an empty street
I don't steal, I don't fake, I don't take, I imitate
