You (Or Somebody Like You)
Outside my window, I swear on my mamas grave
Faded out the street noise like a, out of focus polaroid
So I shot the moon, and I cursed the wind
Making me think that you were, here again
Smoke and mirrors, somebody stole you away
Thats the biggest conspiracy since, JFK
So we combed the corners, and glass houses
Right directions, but, never found it
Well I'd trade in all the rest of my days
Just the mere reflection of your face
For one shining moment
With you, somebody like you
With you, somebody just like you
We called inspectors, the cops and the CIA
The drew chalk circles round, the place that we used to lay
But nobody testified, not a single witness
Swore I was crucified with, no forgiveness
The sheriff shined his light like I was drunk and dangerous
My hands were already tied, so he, put away his handcuffs
And in my blind spot blindspot, I saw the silhouette
Of your crazy legs smoking, long black cigarette
But I'd trade in all the rest of my days
Your crooked smile, your wicked ways
I'd fill up all this empty space
With you, somebody like you
With you, somebody just like you
Oh you, somebody like you, oh
Now I shoulda learned my lesson
Done what I was told
Shoulda counted all my blessings
Like fingers and toes
And now I'm, tripping like a blind man
And searching high and low
For you, somebody like you
For you, somebody just like you
For you, somebody like you
For you somebody just like you
Yeah... yeah somebody just like you
Somebody just like you
Faded out the street noise like a, out of focus polaroid
So I shot the moon, and I cursed the wind
Making me think that you were, here again
Smoke and mirrors, somebody stole you away
Thats the biggest conspiracy since, JFK
So we combed the corners, and glass houses
Right directions, but, never found it
Well I'd trade in all the rest of my days
Just the mere reflection of your face
For one shining moment
With you, somebody like you
With you, somebody just like you
We called inspectors, the cops and the CIA
The drew chalk circles round, the place that we used to lay
But nobody testified, not a single witness
Swore I was crucified with, no forgiveness
The sheriff shined his light like I was drunk and dangerous
My hands were already tied, so he, put away his handcuffs
And in my blind spot blindspot, I saw the silhouette
Of your crazy legs smoking, long black cigarette
But I'd trade in all the rest of my days
Your crooked smile, your wicked ways
I'd fill up all this empty space
With you, somebody like you
With you, somebody just like you
Oh you, somebody like you, oh
Now I shoulda learned my lesson
Done what I was told
Shoulda counted all my blessings
Like fingers and toes
And now I'm, tripping like a blind man
And searching high and low
For you, somebody like you
For you, somebody just like you
For you, somebody like you
For you somebody just like you
Yeah... yeah somebody just like you
Somebody just like you
