i wish i could be
anybody but me
i wish i could be
anybody but me
lonely lonely as i can be
well i had a true love
had the world in my hands
now i got a hurt
i can’t hardly stand
a little bit of loving would be so grand
i’m not the same old me
that i use to be
i wanna be somebody
just anybody but me
i got the blues on my mind
blues won’t let me be
break

from what’s holding me
take away these tears
take away these tears and let me see
’cause i wanna be back
like i use to be

yeah now i wanna be
just any old body but me
because i’m lonely
lonely as i can be
