You're an emotional wreck, you don't know who you are

You never say what you mean

And you keep your mouth shut and your nights stay still

And then you come and call on me

You say I just can't help myself

I really, really wish I could be

Somewhere else

Than here

And I met a girl

She asked me my name

I told her what it was

She looked at me

I tried to explain

Exactly what I'd lost

But now I just can't help myself

I really, really wish I could be

Somewhere else

Than here

You give me everything I need

But I really, really wish I could be

Somewhere else

Than here

Just anywhere else

Just anywhere else than here

And I won't forget

No, I won't forget

No, I won't forget

Oh, when I saw you there, it was the first time

And you just walked on by

I was catching the sparks that flew from your heels

Trying to catch your eye

But that was somewhere else

Yeah, somewhere else

Somewhere else

I really, really wish I could be

Somewhere else

Somewhere else

Somewhere else

I really, really wish I could be

'Cause I just can't help myself

I really, really wish I could be

Somewhere else

Than here

And, no, I just can't help myself

I really, really wish I could

I got everything I need

I really, really wish I could be

Somewhere else

Somewhere else

Somewhere else

I really, really wish I could be
