You're an emotional wreck

you don't know who you are

you never say what you mean

And you keep

your mouth shut

and your nights stay still

and then you come

and call on me

You say I just

can't help myself

I really really

wish I could be

somewhere else than here

And I met a girl

she asked me my name

I told her what it was

She looked at me

I tried to explain

exactly what I'd lost

But now I just

can't help myself

I really really

wish I could be

somewhere else than here

You give me

everything I need

but I really really

wish I could be

somewhere else than here

Just somewhere else

just somewhere else

than here

and I won't forget

no, I won't forget

no, I won't forget...

And when I saw you there

it was the first time

and you just walked on by

I was catchin' the sparks

that flew from your heels

try'na catch your eye

But that was

somewhere else

somewhere else

somewhere else

I really really

wish I could be

somewhere else

somewhere else

somewhere else

I really really

wish I could be

'cause I just

can't help myself

I really really

wish I could be

somewhere else than here

And no, I just

can't help myself

I really really wish I could

I've got everything I need

I really really

wish I could be

Somewhere else

somewhere else

somewhere else

I really really

wish I could be
