Lyrics of Can I Be Him by James Arthur
verse
You walked into the room
And now my heart has been stolen
verse
You took me back in time to when I was unbroken
Now you're all I want
And I knew it from the very first moment
verse
'Cause a light came on when I heard that song
And I want you to sing it again
chorus
I swear that every word you sing
You wrote them for me
chorus
Like it was a private show
I know you never saw me
When the lights come on and I'm on my own
Will you be there to sing it again?
Could I be the one you talk about in all your stories
Can I be him?
verse
I heard there was someone but I know he don't deserve you
If you were mine I'd never let anyone hurt you
I wanna dry those tears, kiss those lips
It's all that I've been thinking about
'Cause a light came on when I heard that song
And I want you to sing it again
chorus
I swear that every word you sing
You wrote them for me
Like it was a private show
I know you never saw me
When the lights come on and I'm on my own
Will you be there to sing it again?
Could I be the one you talk about in all your stories?
bridge
Can I be the one?
Can I be the one?
Can I be the one?
Oh, can I, can I be him?
bridge
Won't you sing it again?
Oh, when you sing it again
Can I be him?
Oh sing it again
Oh, when you sing it again
Can I be him?
chorus
I swear that every word you sing
You wrote them for me
Like it was a private show
I know you never saw me
When the lights come on and I'm on my own
Will you be there, will you be there?
Can I be the one you talk about in all your stories?
outro
Can I be him?
Can I be him?
Can I be him?
Can I be him?
Writer(s): George Henry Tizzard, Richard James Parkhouse, James Andrew Arthur, Negin Djafari
