Lyrics

Someone Like Me

do you know how it feels to be
reminded how lonely you are by someone who then leaves
do you know how it feels to be
reminded how long it's been since you've been touched by someone who'll touch anybody

except you

do you know how it feels to be
waiting for the return of someone who blows like a breeze
do you know how it feels to be
told no matter what she does anytime with anyone she knows that you'll never leave

and it's true

and i wish on a star
oh God in heaven wherever you are
that you never know
that you never know how it feels to be someone like me

I know how it feels to be
waiting all by myself while butterflies roam through parties
And I know how it feels to hear
that they're more important and anytime I'll be there she can see me when she please

and it's true

And I know how it feels to see
the ground rush up at my face in front of them when she pushes me
And I know how it feels to hear
that she only said to do those things because she knew you couldn't do them anyway

and each day

I wish on a star
oh God in heaven whereever you are
that you never know
that you never know how it feels to be someone like me

someone who is always there never fail
someone who can't try less than harder at everything
someone who believes that promises promise and
someone who knows that he has to be someone like me
unshakable
someone like me
reliable
someone like me
dependable
someone like me
deniable

and I wish on a star
oh God in heaven whereever you are
pray you never know
that you never know how it feels to be someone like me
