Could I Be You Lyrics by Matchbox Twenty

The Matchbox Twenty Collection

2002

[Verse 1]
Somethin' 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 laughin' out loud
At just the thought of bein' alive
And I was wonderin'
Could I just be you tonight?
[Verse 2]
You show your pain like it really hurts
And I can't even start to feel mine
Well, I'm standin' in place with my head first and I shake, I shake
And I see your progress stretched out for miles and miles
[Chorus]
You're laughin' out loud
At just the thought of bein' alive
And I was wonderin'
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 laughin' out loud
At the thought of bein' alive
And I was wonderin'
Could I just be you tonight?
And I was wonderin'
Could I just be you tonight?
[Outro]
(Na, na-na, na, na, na-na, na, na, na-na-na)
And I was wonderin'
(Na, na-na, na, na, na-na, na, na, na-na-na)
And I was wonderin'
(Na, na-na, na, na, na-na, na, na, na-na-na)
Yeah, and I was wonderin' (Na, na-na, na, na, na-na)
I was wonderin', ah, yeah
