VERSE 1:

                          
Something is wrong with the sum of us
                          
That I can't seem to erase
               
How can I be the only one
                               
Without a smile on my face, well now


CHORUS:

                   
You're lauging out loud
                            
At just the thought of being alive
          
And I was wondering
                     
Could I just be you tonight


INTRO (x1)


VERSE 2:

                         
You show your pain like it really hurts
                                   
And I can't even start to feel mine
                    
Well I'm standing in place
             
With my head first I shake, I shake
                                                   
And I see your progress stretched out for miles, and miles


CHORUS:

                       
And you're lauging out loud
                            
At just the thought of being alive
          
And I was wondering
                     
Could I just be you tonight


BRIDGE:

                 
This is the sound that I make
                    
These are the words I chose
                    
Somehow the right thing to say

Just won't come out

Just won't come out


CHORUS:

                       
And you're laughing out loud
                       
At the thought of being alive
          
And I was wondering
                   
Could I just be you tonight
          
And I was wondering
                   
Could I just be you tonight
