I’d like to
be you for a day
I’d like to climb into
the dreams you hide
To know the grown up
and the child inside
Whatever makes you smile
I’d like to see it
Go ahead and free it

I’d like to be
you for a day
Are you excited
by electric trains
And kind of lonely
every time it rains
Stare out through your eyes
Would start revealing
All the things you’re feeling
What’s on your mind
when you hear a tune
Or ride a toy balloon
Just let me look
Let me read your book
And learn it
Lovin’ every page
as I turn it

I’d like to be
you for a day
There’s so much more
I need to understand
It’s not enough to
simply hold your hand
And hear the words you say
I wanna touch you
I wanna reach you
In every single way

I’d like to be
you for a day
Put you back on the track
when you go astray
I’d like to be
you for a day
To know your arms and to
share the games that you play
I’d like to be
you for a day

I’d like to be
you for a day
There’s so much more
I need to understand
It’s not enough to
simply hold your hand
And hear the words you say
I wanna touch you
I wanna reach you
In every single way

I’d like to be
you for a day
Put you back on the
track when you go astray
I’d like to be
you for a day
To know your arms and to
share the games that you play
I’d like to be you for a day
I’d like to be you for a day
