If i could be like that (american pie edit)

He spends his whole life being to young
to live the life thats in his dreams.
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.
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 piee 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?
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.
