You know your favorite old pair of shoes
The ones with the hole in the toe you won't lose
Your favorite record that's all scratched and used
But still you love to play when your feeling blueThat faded rose that's all dried out
Those Bukowski poems we couldn't live without
Your high school picture when you had wild hair
That stormy day on the beach that got us hereOh, you better believe there's just one thing you need
Oh can't you see?It's just me baby
It's just me baby
If there's just one thing that you should keep
In your book of dreams, it's just me babyJust like a shadow 10 feet tall
Standin' right behind you should you fall
I'll be the one to hold you up to walk
When this wicked world makes us want to crawlAnd if your waves should ever break at sea
I'll be there waitin, I'm that sandy beach
I'm that same old dog, scratchin' those same fleas
I'll be by your side, you can count on meIt's just me baby
It's just me baby
If there's just one thing that you should keep
In your book of dreamsIt's just me baby
It's just me baby
What's it gonna take to make you see
What's it gonna take 'til you believe in meOh, how my smile fades and my heart just breaks
Every time you go awayIt's just me baby
It's just me baby
If there's one more thing that you should keep
In your book of dreamsIt's just me baby
It's just me baby
What's it gonna take to make you see
What's it gonna take 'til you believe in meAnd if someday some new memory comes along
Lookin' shiny new, feelin' really strong
You can tell him that I'll tell him, he can just move on
I'm a fighter, I've been fightin' for you all night longIt's just me baby
It's just me
It's just me baby
It's just me
