Wish I Were Him

By Harry Connick, Jr. (2013)
On album Smokey Mary (1996)

Smokey Mary
I'd jump in the river if I wasn't scared to drown
Wasn't scared to drown, wasn't scared to drown
I'd jump in the river if I wasn't scared to drown
But I'm scared of drowning so I stayed

I'd walk through the fire if I wasn't scared to burn
Wasn't scared to burn, wasn't scared to burn
I'd walk through the fire if I wasn't scared to burn
But I'm scared of burning so I stayed

[Chorus:]
Wish i were him what's his problem we don't care
He don't see me when I stare he's not going anywhere
If I were him I would get so drive around
Just to light up on the sun, like a king I wouldn't crown
For all the love I found

I looked in the mirror if I wasn't scared to cry
Wasn't scared to cry, wasn't scared to cry
I looked in the mirror if I wasn't scared to cry
But I'm scared of crying so I sing

[Chorus:]
Wish i were him what's his problem we don't care
He don't see me when I stare he's not going anywhere
If I were him I would get so drive around
Just to light up on the sun, like a king I wouldn't crown
For all the love I found

I looked in the mirror if I wasn't scared to cry
Wasn't scared to cry, wasn't scared to cry
I looked in the mirror if I wasn't scared to cry
But I'm scared of crying so I sing

I'm scared of crying so I sing
I'm scared of something either way
