lyrics

"SOMEBODY ELSE"
by David Guilbault

You could never be yourself with me.
You were somebody else, who I couldn’t see.

When I think of our life.
When I think of our - love, together
I only now realize
That you were - above, knowing.

You could never be yourself with me.
You were somebody else, who I couldn’t see.
Somebody else, who wasn’t honest with me.

When I think of our days.
When I think of our - times, together
I only now see the ways
That you were not mine, so clever.

You could never be yourself with me.
You were somebody else, who I couldn’t see.
Somebody else, who wasn’t honest with me.
Somebody else, you didn’t happen to be.

When I saw you with him
I didn’t know who you - were, together
Diff’rent laugh, diff’rent grin,
Different girl, altogether.

You could never be yourself with me.
You were somebody else, who I couldn’t see.
Somebody else, who was out to be seen.
Somebody else, who flew to be free.
You could never be yourself with me.
