lyrics

i need somebody to talk to.
i need somebody to care.
no, it can't just be anybody.
it's gotta be somebody
who can stand her ground
and knows how to throw her weight around
when the lights go down.
and when that second line comes,
yo she ain't gonna wait around.
she won't wait around.

there i go again, this wishful thinking never ends.
call me crazy but you never seem to call.
there i go again, this wishful thinking never ends.
and whoever said you can't have it all?

is it too much to ask for?
am i out of my head?
oh well!
it's just a brain,
i don't need it for anything
i'd rather be somebody
who can take a few shots
and still stand on top
of the world someday,
in my own way,
and if you try
to slow me down, homie
there will be hell to pay.
there will be hell to pay!

there i go again, this wishful thinking never ends.
might be driven, but i'll drive you up a wall.
there i go again, this wishful thinking never ends.
and whoever said you can't have it all?

what kind of life do you wanna live?

there i go again, this wishful thinking never ends.
call me crazy but you never seem to call.
there i go again, this wishful thinking never ends.
and whoever said you can't have it all?
