Lyrics
WISH I COULD BE YOU
one morning, without warning
it was in the paper. I saw your face
saw a smile that once was mine
in a different time and a different place
wish I could be you
wish I could be the air you breathe
the memory's in a photograph
guess I'm still in love with you
wish I could be with you
you're happy, I'm not
I've got nothing, you've got a lot
everybody knows you're name
you're a star while I've remained the same
wish I could be you
wish I could be the air you breathe
the memory's in a photograph
guess I'm still in love with you
wish I could be with you
the wind could change tomorrow
blowing pictures away
put your back on your feet tomorrow
but you're not here today
wish I could be you
wish I could be the air you breathe
the memory's in a photograph
guess I'm still in love with you
wish I could be with you
