A song plays softly and I don't know the words
But the melody makes me cry
'Cause she is singing my thoughts
They're heavy but she is lifting them up
So I've given up ever trying to be the one to decipher me
Maybe someday you'll understand me and maybe someone
Maybe not, maybe not
Can I be you?
Can I be you?
Oh, I could be you
But could you be me?
Wish I could find a way to figure it out
To write it all down
Wish I could find a way, someway to make it fit
But nothing does, I'll just worry that I'll ruin it
Can I be you?
Can I be you?
Oh, I could be you
But could you be me?
I remember the time when all was left me
Turns out you were right beside them waiting for me
Can I be you?
Can I be you?
Oh, I could be you
But could you be me?
Can I be you?
Can I be you?
Oh, I could be you
But could you be me?
