I Wish Lyrics - All About Chemistry - Semisonic

I wish I could be anyone 

But the one that I am now 

I wish I could see any scene 

But the one I hang around 

I wish I could do anything 

But the things I always do 

No matter how I try to sing along 

Somethin' is always wrong 

What I wish I knew 

I wish I could drive in the car 

That you drive around the bay 

I wish I could ride in the back seat 

You're ridin' in today 

I wish I could be more like someone 

You wish that I could be 

No matter how I change it anyway 

You won't even say 

If you really want me 

I can try to please you 

Get down on my knees for you 

Go outside and freeze for you 

Cross the high seas for you 

Whatever you need me to 

I can climb the trees for you 

Twist in the breeze for you 

But the one thing that I can never do 

I can't believe for you 

I can't believe in me for you 

I wish I could turn 

Into somebody far, far away 

I wish I could make 

Myself satisfactory in every way 

I wish I could know 

Whether you really know what you need 

If I could only be somebody else 

I wouldn't be myself 

And maybe you'd want me 

I can try to please you 

Get down on my knees for you 

Go outside and freeze for you 

Cross the high seas for you 

Whatever you need me to 

I've been climbing the trees for you 

Twistin' in the breeze for you 

But the one thing I can never, never do 

I can't believe for you 

I can't believe in me for you
