I can see you come to gossip and they tell me so and so   But there's not a thing about him I don't already know   I guess you think I'm crazy but it keeps him here with me   And I only see the things I wanna see   I only see the things I wanna see where he's concerned   It wouldn't do my heart no good believe in what I've learned   I can't face the truth about the man he'll never be   So I only see the things I wanna see   [ piano ]   I only see the things I wanna see where he's concerned   It wouldn't do my heart much good believe in what I've learned   But it's worth all my heartaches when I have him here with me   So I only see the things I wanna see yes I only see the things I wanna see
