“Someone Else’s Life”
Somehow
I’m leading someone else’s life
I cut a star down with my knife
And right now
I still see the way the moon
Plays this tune
Though our lights died.
My hands shake
My knees quake
It’s every day
The same way.
Cos then came you.
Then there’s you.
I keep your picture
In my worn through shoes.
Then there’s you.
Then came you.
When I’m lost,
I look at my picture of you.
And somehow
I’ll make tonight our own
I’ll show you every way I’ve grown
Since I met you
And right now
I’ll be the boy in your next song
I’ll learn the parts and play along
If you let me.
My hands shake
My knees quake
It’s every day
The same way.
Cos then came you.
Then there’s you.
I keep your picture
In my worn through shoes.
Then there’s you.
Then came you.
When I’m lost,
I look at my picture of you.
If you let me,
I’ll show the world to you.
Yes, if you let me,
I’ll know just what to do.
Cos then came you.
Then there’s you.
I keep your picture
In my worn through shoes.
When I’m lost
In your eyes
I see a way for me
— Joshua Radin
