I Wish I Was a Girl — текст песни (Counting crows)

The devils in the dreamin

He tells you Im not sleepin

In my hotel room alone

With nothing to believe in

You dive into the traffic rising up

And its so quiet

Youre surprised and then you wake

For all the things youre losing

You might as well resign yourself to try and make a change

And Im going down to hollywood

Theyre gonna make a movie from the things

That they find crawling round my brain

I wish I was a girl

So that you could believe me

And I could shake this static every time I try to sleep

I wish for all the world

That I could say

Hey, elizabeth, you know Im doing all right

These days

The devils in the dreamin

You see yourself descending

From the building to the ground

And you watch the sky receding

And you spin to see the traffic

Rising up and its so quiet

And youre surprised and then you wake

For all the things Im losing

I might as well resign myself to try and make a change

And Im going down to hollywood

Theyre gonna make a movie from the things

That they find crawling round my brain

I wish I was a girl

So that you could believe me

And I could shake this static every time I try to sleep

I wish for all the world

That I could say, hey, elizabeth,

You know Im doing all right these days

And one of these dreams

You forgive me

It makes me think of the bad decisions

That keep you at home

How could anyone else have changed

But these are wrong conclusions

That leave you alone

How could everyone rearrange

How could everyone else have changed

What I see

I believe

For all the things Im losing

I might as well resign myself to try and make a change

And Im going down to hollywood

Theyre gonna make a movie from the things

That they find crawling round my brain

I wish I was a girl

So that you could believe me

And I could shake this static every time I try to sleep

I wish for all the world

That I could say, hey, elizabeth,

You know Im doing all right these days

Well I cant sleep at night [repeated]
