Bee Gees Wouldn't I Be Someone song lyrics

Maybe there's a reason why we broke up

I could dedicate my life to something new

But I must have been asleep but then I woke up

Working out why I was still with you

All the things I wish I could have been

Wouldn't I be someone, someone

And I would be respected

In the prime of my life, I'll do ev'rything right

I'll begin

Wouldn't I be something, something

I would get a reputation

In the prime of my life, I'll do ev'rything right

I'll begin

(break)

Midnight stars are shining on my shoeshine

Telling me the things I'm gonna be

Now the hurts all gone, I've pushed them all behind me

And the world is gonna fall in love with me

All the things I wish I could have been

Wouldn't I be someone, someone

And I would be respected

In the prime of my life, I'll do ev'rything right

I'll begin

Wouldn't I be something, something

I would get a reputation

In the prime of my life, I'll do ev'rything right

I'll begin
