he  spends  his  nights  in  california,  watching

  the  stars  on  the  big  screen

  then  he  lies  awake  and  he  wonders,  why

  can't  that  be  me

  cause  in  his  life  he  is  filled  with  all  these

  good  intentions

  he's  left  a  lot  of  things  he'd  rather  not

  mention  right  now

  but  just  before  he  says  goodnight,  he  looks

  up  with  a  little  smile  at  me  and  he  says

  if  i  could  be  like  that,  i  would

  give  anything

  just  to  live  one  day,  in  those  shoes

  if  i  could  be  like  that,  what  would  i  do

  what  would  i  do  

  now  and  dreams  we  run  

  she  spends  her  days  up  in  the  north  park,

  watching  the  people  as  they  pass

  and  all  she  wants  is  just  a  little  piece  of

  this  dream,  is  that  too  much  to  ask

  with  a  safe  home,  and  a  warm  bed,  on  a

  quiet  little  street

  all  she  wants  is  just  that  something  to

  hold  onto,  that's  all  she  needs  

  yeah!  if  i  could  be  like  that,  i  would

  give  anything

  just  to  live  one  day,  in  those  shoes

  if  i  could  be  like  that,  what  would  i  do,

  what  would  i  do  yeah..

  i'm  falling  into  this,  in  dreams

  we  run  away  if  i  could  be  like  that,  i  would

  give  anything  just  to  live  one  day,  in  those  shoes

  if  i  could  be  like  that,  what  would  i  do,

  what  would  i  do  if  i  could  be  like  that,  i  would

  give  anything  just  to  live  one  day,  in  those  shoes

  if  i  could  be  like  that,  what  would  i  do,

  what  would  i  do  if  i  could  be  like  that,  i  would

  give  anything  just  to  live  one  day,  in  those  shoes

  if  i  could  be  like  that,  what  would  i  do,

  what  would  i  do  falling  in

  i  feel  i  am  falling  in,  to  this  again
