Someone Else Lyrics

I knew of love like a song

But I forgot to sing it

I had a dream of you

But sleep could never bring it



I walk out late with my friends

We carry bottles with us

Laughing like bees, as we buzz

We take the night upon us



I've been wishing I could change myself

Cause you say you're in love with someone else



Give me your hand and we'll run

Along the rows of houses

Passing the flowering trees

We'll count them by the thousands



Burnt off my wings by the sun

Because i flew around it

Trying to learn your name

I had it writ upon me



You seem a lot like me

My spirit wanes and waxes

I'm the American son

Who votes and pays his taxes



Nowhere to call my home

I watch the birds of morning

Cold are my hands, I know

But it's your love that warms me



I've been wishing I could change myself

Cause you say you're in love with someone else
