In a world where dreams often seem out of reach, this song captures the yearning for a different life through vivid storytelling. The lyrics explore the lives of two individuals who long for change—one seeking the glamour and excitement of Hollywood 🌟, and the other desiring simple stability and comfort. Both characters are filled with good intentions but are haunted by unfulfilled aspirations. The recurring question, "If I could be like that," reflects their deep introspection about what they would do if given the chance to live someone else's life. Ultimately, the song delves into themes of longing, regret, and the human desire for transformation, resonating with anyone who has ever wished for something more.
Be Like That
Lyrics
He spends his nights in California
Watching the stars on the big screen
And then he lies awake and he wonders
Why can't that be me?
'Cause in his life he is filled
With all these good intentions
He's left a lot of things
He'd rather not mention right now
Just before he says goodnight
He looks up with a little smile at me
And he says
If I could be like that
Well I would give anything
Just to live one day in
In those shoes
If I could be like that
What would I do?
What would I do?
Now in 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 piece of this dreams
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 on to
That's all she needs
Yeah, if I could be like that
Well I would give anything
Just to live one day in
In those shoes
If I could be like that
What would I do?
What would I do? Yeah yeah yeh oh oh
I'm falling into this
In dreams we run away
If I could be like that
Well 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?
Lord what would I do? Yeah yeah
Falling in
I feel I am falling in
To this again
