Why can't I be her?

That's all that I ask for

Just when will you see me

Just me can't you see?

What does she do that's different

I couldn't bear to see you with her

Know I don't have any chances

But I really wanna try and see it

Only wishing on a star

Praying that I get to see

What it's like to be

[Pre-Chorus]

When you wrap your arms around me

And when you sing a song for me

Is that too much to ask for?

Am I thinking too much?

I wanna be the one to make you laugh

The one to make you smile when you cry

So why can't I?

[Chorus]

No, why can't I be her?

Just why can't I be her

No, why can't I be her?

Just why can't I be her?
