Anouk - Be Like That (What Would I Do?) lyrics

He spent his life 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 in dreams we run She spends her days up in the north park, Watching the people as they pa** 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
