Lyrics

[Verse 1]

I wish we were both somebody else

So you wouldn't be somebody else's

I don't wanna lay here by myself

Ain't afraid to say I'm selfish

[Verse 2]

Don't wanna lie to you, I don't wanna promise something

Knowin' I can't come through, toast over this discussion

Both ignoring the rules, too close, and then we're touching

Now we're both confused, well I know

[Verse 3]

Something in the way you smell

Something in the way you touch me

Maybe it's the way you wrap your arms around

Makes me wanna lay you down, and tell you all the things we could be

Tell me that you need me now, even though it's not allowed

[Verse 4]

I wish we were both somebody else

So you wouldn't be somebody else's

I don't wanna lay here by myself

Hope you forgive me darlin', I'm selfish

I wish we were both somebody else

So you wouldn't be somebody else's

I don't wanna lay here by myself

Ain't afraid to say I'm selfish

[Verse 5]

Window to my soul, I know you know my weakness

Arms folded, both eyes closed, won't tell no one your secrets

Some things we can't control, you leave me with no defense

Only thing I know is I'm yours

[Verse 6]

Something in the way you smell

Something in the way you touch me

Maybe it's the way you wrap your arms around

Makes me wanna lay you down, and tell you all the things we could be

Tell me that you need me now, even though it's not allowed

[Verse 7]

I wish that we were both somebody else

So you wouldn't be somebody else's

I don't wanna lay here by myself

Hope you forgive me about it, I'm selfish

I wish that we were both somebody else

So you wouldn't be somebody else's

I don't wanna lay here by myself

[Verse 8]

Till I'm yours, I'm in too deep now

Don't let me breathe, your love won't be found

My everything, you're all I need now

Someone else is without you, and no one else waiting around

Till I'm yours, I'm in too deep now

Don't let me breathe, my love won't be found

My everything, you're all I need now

Someone else is without you, and no one else waiting around

[Verse 9]

I wish that we were both somebody else

So you wouldn't be somebody else's

I don't wanna lay here by myself

Ain't afraid to say I'm selfish
