Lyrics

Be Like That

He spends his nights in California Watching the stars on the big screen Then he lies awake and he wonders "Why can't that be me?" 'Cause in his life he's filled with all these good intentions He's left a lot of things he'd rather not mention right now Just before he says goodnight He looks up with a little smile at me and he says If I could be like that I would give anything Just to live one day in those shoes If I could be like that What would I do? What would I do? Yeah Now in dreams we run She spends her days up in the north park Watching the people as they pass And all she wants is just a little piece of this dream Is that too much to ask? With a safe home, and a warm bed On a quiet little street All she wants is just that something to hold onto That's all she needs, yeah If I could be like that I would give anything Just to live one day in those shoes If I could be like that What would I do? What would I do? Yeah, yeah, yeah, oh, yeah I'm falling into the same dreams We run away If I could be like that I would give anything Just to live one day in those shoes If I could be like that What would I do? What would I do? If I could be like that I would give anything Just to live one day in those shoes If I could be like that What would I do? What would I do? If I could be like that I would give anything Just to live one day in those shoes If I could be like that What would I do? Lord, what would I do? Yeah Falling in I feel I'm falling in to this again
