Some other me

[Beth]

Somewhere there's a world where you and I are man and wife

We have a child

Or three

And it’s just fine with me

To love that life

And somewhere there's a world

Where from the first we never met

We never spoke

Or kissed

We don't know what we missed

Or don't know yet

And I didn't go to Vassar

But to Smith, or Yale, or Brown

I ended up in Boston

Or some small Alaska town

To practice law, or neuter cats

Or fish the Bering Sea

Those lives are lived somewhere

By some other me

Some other me

Is homeless

Some other me

Is queen

Some other me has seen things that no other me has seen

If I met her, I would ask her that one question we both fear:

Some other me

How’d we end up here?

[Lucas]

Somewhere there’s a me who never loved that other you

Who liked you fine

I guess

As buddies, more or less

And that would do

And somewhere there's a you who simply worshipped other me

And we were wild

And hot

And all the things we’re not

And we were free

And somewhere I'm the president

With plans that never fail

And somewhere I'm a rebel king

And some where I'm in jail

I didn't chase my glory days long after they were done

I found myself a woman, or a man, and had a son

Some other me’s

A rockstar

Some other me’s

Still cool

Some other me does not feel like some tired old fool

And you and I are strangers

Or we’re lovers, or we’re not

The other me's

Live with what they've got

[Beth]

Look down each road left untaken

[Lucas]

Trace every turn and twist

[Beth]

The lives that we just let go by

[Lucas]

The dreams we might have missed

[Both]

Now we’re old enough to know that

One road ends where one begins

The moment where the “what might be's”

Turn into “might have been's”

[Beth]

Somewhere there’s a world where you and I can still be friends

Not like we were

Not yet

We forgive but don't forget

No happy ends

But friends
