Misheard lyrics

All and sundry

My sister is currently playing “I Try” by Macy Gray, the chorus of which is:

I try to walk away and I stumble
Though I try to hide it, it’s clear
My world crumbles when you are not near

I, however, am hearing it sung thus:

I try to walk away and I stumble
Though I try to hide it, it’s clear
I blow bubbles when you are not near

    I always heard
    “I wear goggles where you’re not here”
    Which kinda made sense… she’s not gonna want to wear them when he IS there, is she!
