Below, you will find the lyrics for Can I Be Him by James Arthur.
Verse 1
You walked into the room
And now my heart's been stolen
You took me back in time to when i was unbroken
Now you're all i want
And i knew it from the very first moment
Cause a light came on when i heard that song
And i want you to sing it again
Chorus 1
I swear that every word you sing
You wrote them for me
Like it was a private show
But i know you never saw me
When the lights come on and i'm on my own
Will you be there to sing it again
Could i be the one you talk about in all your stories
Can i be him
Verse 2
I heard there was someone but i know he don't deserve you
If you were mine i'd never let anyone hurt you
I wanna dry those tears, kiss those lips
It's all that i've been thinking about
Cause a light came on when i heard that song
And i want you to sing it again
Chorus 2
I swear that every word you sing
You wrote them for me
Like it was a private show
But i know you never saw me
When the lights come on and i'm on my own
Will you be there to sing it again
Could i be the one you talk about in all your stories
Can i be the one
Can i be the one
Can i, can i be him
Won't you sing it again
When you sing it again
Can i be him
Won't you sing it again
When you sing it again
Can i be him
Chorus 3
I swear that every word you sang
You wrote them for me
Like it was a private show
But i know you never saw me
When the lights come on and i'm on my own
Will you be there, will you be there
Can i be the one you talk about in all your stories
Can i be him
Can i be him
Can i be him
Can i be him
