I know I should have asked you to stay
Should've fought a little harder when you said you need space
I know I maybe held you too close
And when we started to fade out, I fell in love with your ghost, yeah

Took some time, but
I'm finally feelin' alright
Till somebody said your name

And when you walked in the room, hand in his hand
Only took a minute to bring it all back
I wish I could be like you
Fallin' for somebody new
I'm alone in my head, hole in my chest
Prayin' that you could love me instead
I wish I could be like you
Fallin' for somebody new

I wish I, wish I could hate you so bad
But under the surface, you were the best that I had
And sometimes, I wake up thinkin' you're next to me
I keep on starin' at the empty side where you used to be

Took some time, but
I'm finally feelin' alright
Till somebody said your name (oh)

And when you walked in the room, hand in his hand
Only took a minute to bring it all back
I wish I could be like you (hey, yeah)
Fallin' for somebody new (somebody new)
I'm alone in my head, hole in my chest
Prayin' that you could love me instead
I wish I could be like you
Fallin' for somebody new (somebody new)

Oh
I wanna be like you (oh)
And I guess I could be like you
Oh
I wanna be like you (oh)

And when you walked in the room, hand in his hand
Only took a minute to bring it all back
I wish I could be like you
Fallin' for somebody new
I'm alone in my head, hole in my chest
Prayin' that you could love me instead
I wish I could be like you
Fallin' for somebody new (oh)

And when you walked in the room, hand in his hand
Only took a minute to bring it all back
I wish I could be like you (I wish I could be like you)
Fallin' for somebody new (fallin' for somebody new)
I'm alone in my head, hole in my chest
Prayin' that you could love me instead
I wish I could be like you
Fallin' for somebody new
