If I Could Be


If I could be just half of who you are
If I could keep my back straight and wear your smile
If I could trace the lines embracing your face
If I could reach across to the other side
And wipe away the shadows in your eyes

I would tell you over and over again
every time you'd try to be my friend
I would tell you over and over again
you're not the one for me
I would tell you over and over again
every time you'd try to be my friend
I would tell you over and over again
you're not the one for me
you and your promises, you never keep them anyway

Nothing's really changed
just a couple of phrases, her last name.
you've got to stop pretending
you've got to let us move on, keep mending
you've got to let us be, be us

I would tell you over and over again
every time you'd try to be my friend
I would tell you over and over again
you're not the one for me
I would tell you over and over again
every time you'd try to be my friend
I would tell you over and over again
you're not the one for me
you are still the one making my believers run

I would tell you over and over again
every time you'd try to be my friend
I would tell you over and over again
you're not the one for me
I would tell you over and over again
every time you'd try to be my friend
I would tell you over and over again
you're not the one for me
