lyrics

I wish I could fly at the speed of light,
Get a whole new horizon every night
I wish I could glide while other guys stand.
Get the whole damn world in the palm of my hand

I wish I could swing across the floor
Fall staggering through to the gap in the door
Got a head full of whisky a heart full of ice
Gonna have the best damn day of my life.

The same old conversation
We’re getting in too deep
The same old complication
Take a drive off lovers leap

I wish I could be, the guy on your TV
I wish I could be, your number one maybe
I wish I could be, I wish I could be

I wish I could be, your Marlon Brando
I wish I could be , your Drive In freak Show
I wish I could be, I wish I could be

Didn’t move, didn’t talk
Didn’t stop for a second thought

Read my mind and turn it loose
Wish I could see behind the truth
The headlines scream for satisfaction
Wish I could end the noise distraction

My dearest friend, my oldest sin
I wish I could change the shape I’m in
My hands are shaking eyes dilating
I wish I could start all over again

The same old conversation
We’re getting in too deep
The same old complication
Take a drive off lovers leap

I wish I could be , the guy on your TV
I wish I could be, Not another maybe
I wish I could be, I wish I could be

I wish I could be, with you by myself
I wish I could be, your nobody else
I wish I could be, I wish i could be

Didn’t move, didn’t talk
Didn’t stop for a second thought

The same old conversation
We’re getting in too deep
The same old complication
Take a drive off lovers leap

I wish I could be, the guy on your TV
I wish I could be, your number one maybe
I wish I could be, I wish I could be

I wish I could be, your Marlon Brando
I wish I could be , your Drive In freak Show
I wish I could be, I wish I could be

I wish I could be, the guy on the phone
I wish I could be , your dog with a bone
I wish I could be, I wish I could be

I wish I could be, with you by myself
I wish I could be, your nobody else
I wish I could be, I wish i could be
