You (Or Somebody Like You)

Outside my window An' I swear on my mama's grave You faded out of the street noise like ... an out-of-focus Polaroid So I shot the moon, I curse the wind For makin' me think that you were ... here again Smoke and mirrors Somebody stole you away It's the biggest conspiracy since ... J.F.K. I combed the corners And the glass houses The right directions But, I never found it Well I'd trade in all the rest of my days For just the mere reflection of your face (or) For one shining moment With you Or somebody like you With you Or somebody just like you Call the inspector, cops, and the C.I.A. They drew chalk circles 'round the ... place that we used to lay No, nobody testified, not a single witness Swear I was crucified with, with no forgiveness And the sheriff shined his light like I was drunk and dangerous An' my hands were already tied, so he put away his handcuffs an' ... And in my blind spot I saw a silhouette Of crazy legs smokin' ... a long black cigarette Well I'd trade in all the rest of my days For your crooked smile, your wicked ways I'd fill up all this empty space With you Or somebody like you With you Or somebody just like you With you Or somebody like you Now I'm drownin' in the undertow (Now I'm drownin' in the undertow) Just burnin' in the afterglow An' I should've learned my lessons Done what I was told Should've counted my blessings, like Fingers and toes And now I'm ... trippin' like a blind man Searchin' high and low For you Or somebody like you For you Or somebody just like you (Somebody just like you) (Whaaa) (Somebody like you) Somebody just like you Or somebody like you (somebody just like you) For you (Or somebody like you)
