Lyrics for If I Could Be Like That as interpreted by priOphelia

If I Could Be Like That Lyrics
He spends his nights in California
wathcing the stars on the big screen.
and then he lies awake and wonders
why can't that be me??
Cause in his life he's filled with all these good intentions.
He's left a lot of things he'd rather not mention right now.
Just before he says goodnight,
He looks up with a little smile at me and he says

If I could be like that (like that)
I'd would give anything
Just to live one day
In those shoes.
If I could be like that (like that), what would I do?
What would I do? yeah

Now in 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 now, that's all she needs. (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?

Yeahee yeah oh ohhh yeah
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? x3

Falling in.
I feel I'm falling in to this again.

Great song..I agree with skidder...Its about about people who just sometimes wish they could have a little more..even if only for a day....but if you look at the second verse..there could also be a hidden meaning about appreciating what you have because others may not be so lucky...

I feel that this song is about the American Dream. Having a beautiful girl to spend the rest of your days with, becoming a homeowner, having children etc. This man in California dreams about this every night, willing to give up anything just to have a little taste of the dream we all chase.
