IF I COULD BE YOU
WHAT WOULD IT MEAN,WHAT WOULD IT DO,WHO WOULD I BE,IF I COULD BE YOU,AND I COULD NOT BE ME,WHAT WOULD OTHERS BELEIVE,WHAT WOULD OTHERS SEE,WHO WOULD CARE IF I WAS NOT ME,IF I COULD BE YOU,WITH NOTHING TO DO,LIFE BEING DIFFERENT,WITH NOTHING BEING TRUE,YET WHEN I'M BEING ME,LIFE BECOMES CLEAR,WITH ANOTHER DAY THATS NEAR,WITH NOTHING TO FEAR,SO WHAT WOULD IT MEAN,IF I COULD BE YOU,LIFE WITH NO PLEASURE,LIFE WITH NO CLUE,SO WHAT WOULD I DO,GIVE ME ALL THE GIRLS,GIVE ME ALL THE MONEY,MAKE ME A FOOL,SO THEN WHO WOULD I BE,WOULD I BE WHAT THEY SEE,WOULD I FEEL FANCY AND FREE,OR WOULD I JUST NOT BE ME,NO MATTER WHO YOU ARE,NO MATTERWHAT YOU SEE,NO MATTER WHAT YOU HEAR,THE BEST LIFE IS YOUR OWN,AND NOT TO BE LIKE ME Joseph A DeVoe 4/29/08IF I COULD BE YOU

- There is a very good lesson in your words. We all wake up some days and just want to be anybody else. You know it, we are who we are, there's no getting out of our skin!!! Thanks.
