Lyrics
Just Like You
Your songs are on the radio, every single day
Fans keep coming back for more, they love to watch you play
One by one they idolize you, trying to compare
You know you're the lucky one, that gets to be up there
Every city looks the same, from your point of view
When you've loved them all before, nothing's ever new
Limousines and dressing rooms, then you hit the stage
Everybody's watching you, in your rock star cage
Everybody knows you by your name
Everybody wants a piece of your game
They fantasize about a taste of fame
They wanna be just like you, they wanna be you
Wanna be, wanna be, wanna be just like you
Wanna be, wanna be, wanna be just like you
Wanna be, wanna be, wanna be you
They stage is like a lifeline, you need it to survive
Every clap and every cheer is keeping you alive
When the show is over, in a hotel bed you lie
You think about how many times, you've had to say goodbye
Everybody knows you by your name
Everybody wants a piece of your game
They fantasize about a taste of fame
They wanna be, they wanna be, just like you
Everybody knows you by your name
Everybody wants a piece of your game
They fantasize about a taste of fame
They wanna be just like you, they wanna be you
Wanna be, wanna be, wanna be just like you
Wanna be, wanna be, wanna be just like you
Wanna be, wanna be, wanna be just like you
Just Like You
