/verse 1/ 
My head feels tangled up 
like the headphones in my pocket 
Two words and you got me 
Two nights and you told me that 

/Verse2/ 
Once the time is counting down, 
it's impossible to stop it 
Three words that we need to save 
Three weeks till you move away 

/Pre-Chorus 1/ 
So go, go oh oh oh oh oh 
Your heart has to be followed 
Woah oh oh oh oh oh oh 

/Chorus 1/ 
'Cause we (oh oh oh) got a dream (oh oh oh) 
Gotta be somebody, be someone 
'Cause we (oh oh oh) got a dream (oh oh oh) 
Gotta be somebody, be someone 
So please, be somebody with me 

/verse 3/ 
Piles of magazines left from two months ago 
I'm clinging to old news 
Memories I'm scared to loose 

/verse 4/ 
Now I find reminders down the sofa and under the bed 
Three words could've made you stay 
Three words that I left to late 

/Pre-Chorus 2/ 
So go, go oh oh oh oh oh 
Your heart has to be followed 
Woah oh oh oh oh oh 

/Chorus 2/ 
'Cause we (oh oh oh) got a dream (oh oh oh) 
Gotta be somebody, be someone 
'Cause we (oh oh oh) got a dream (oh oh oh) 
Gotta be somebody, be someone 
So please, be somebody with me 

/Bridge/ 
If you feel like running 
The grass is greener inside your heart 
And I'll be there if it falls apart 
Love who you're becoming 
Sometimes we win but sometimes we fall 
Story still remains untold 

/Pre-Chorus 3/ 
So go, go oh oh oh oh oh 
Your heart has to be followed 
Woah oh oh oh oh oh 

/Chorus 3/ 
'Cause we (oh oh oh) got a dream (oh oh oh) 
Gotta be somebody, be someone 
'Cause we (oh oh oh) got a dream (oh oh oh) 
Gotta be somebody, be someone 
'Cause we (oh oh oh) got a dream (oh oh oh) 
Gotta be somebody, be someone  
'Cause we (oh oh oh) got a dream (oh oh oh) 
Gotta be somebody, be someone 
So please, be somebody with me
