I Wish I Could Be More Like You

from Songs of Innocence and Experience by Paul D McDowell

/

lyrics

I went into the street today and I took a look around
Seeing all the faces staring at the ground
Noone wants to look you in the eyes
Are they afraid of what they might find?

I went into a shop and bought a drink
But all the people made me think
What the hell is wrong with you?
Are you a perfectionist with a guilty conscience and not a clue?

So I turned into a lion, a mighty beast, a phoenix on fire at least
And I ran and flew

But I really wish that I could be more like you
I really wish that I could be more like you

You

You are never told the truth
Quit your hesitation get off the ground
Love will never knock them dead
Be found

I really wish that I could be more like you
I really wish that I could be more like you
I really wish that I could be more like you
I really wish that I could be more like you
You
You
You
You
You
You
