Wishing
Give me a minute to clear my head
Let me recognize
That you ain't half who you want to be
Comes as no surprise
I've seen the highs and I've seen the lows
Of the seasons' change
Let people come and let people go
There's no easy way

Well, I try
Wishing I was somebody else
But it never seems to get me nowhere
Wishing I was somebody else

I'll be your friend and I'll tell no lies
So just hear me out, only hear me out
I could tell you you're beautiful without a trace of doubt
Not a trace of doubt

In good time
I'll swear I'll be king in your eyes
For all the nights you'll never sleep wondering why
Well, I try
Wishing I was somebody else
But it never seems to get me nowhere
Wishing I was somebody else
Somebody else

In good time
I'll swear I'll be king in your eyes
For all the nights you'll never sleep wondering why

Well, I try
Wishing I was somebody else
But it never seems to get me nowhere
Wishing I was somebody else

I get by
Wishing I was somebody else
But it never seems to get me nowhere
Wishing I was somebody else
Somebody else
