Never Be You Lyrics by Celeste Buckingham

Where I Belong

2012

I'll never be like you
You know that I've tried to
But no one can touch you
Whatever I do, I'll never be you
Could wear the right faces
Be in all the right places
Saw myself to be famous as you
Wouldn't do, I'll never be you
I could be a movie star
My star right on the boulevard
Still won't get to where you are
You're perfect, it's true, I'll never be you
Just to let you knooow!
Yeah, yeah!
Nothing lasts forever
So yeah, yeah!
Don't think you own the world
You never will, you never can, sorry, you don't understand
But baby all I know is I will never be you
Play all the right cards
You're the one on the top charts
You're everyone's sweetheart
They like what you do, but I'll never be you
You say I'll be happy
If I do what you tell me
But you don't even hear me
So I say,they were true and I'll never be you
I could be a movie star
My star right on the boulevard
Still won't get to where you are
You're perfect, it's true, I'll never be you
Just to let you knooow!
Yeah, yeah!
Nothing lasts forever
So yeah, yeah!
Don't think you own the world
You never will, you never can, sorry, you don't understand
But baby all I know is I will never be you
I'm a shooting star and I play the part
But you push too far...
When I crash and fall, you don't care at all
So now I'm standing tall!
[Guitar solo]
Yeah, yeah!
Nothing lasts forever
So yeah, yeah!
Don't think you own the world
You never will, you never can, sorry, you don't understand
But baby all I know is I will never be, never be you
