I reside in 209, you're in 208

You moved in last friday night,

And I just couldn't wait

So I tried to call across the hall,

To ask you out someday

But a lineup formed outside your door, and I was way too late.

[Chorus]

Well I'd rather start off slow

This whole thing's like

Some sort of race

Instead of winning what I want

I'm sitting here in second place.

Because somewhere

The one I wanna be with's

With somebody else

Oh god, I wanna be that

Someone that you're with

I wanna be that someone

That you're with

And I can talk about it all day long

'til I run out of breath

But I still wanna be that

Someone that you're with

I've got to be that

Someone that you're with

And I'm pacing by the phone

'cause I hate to be alone

And if you're out there with him

Somewhere and just about to kiss

God I wanna be that

Someone that you're with.

Well I hear your favorite songs

You sing along with everyday

And I borrow things that

I don't need for conversation sake

Last night I heard your key,

It hit your lock at 4 am

Instead of being out with me

You must be out with them.

[Chorus]

Well I'd rather start off slow

This whole thing's like

Some sort of race

Instead of winning what I want

I'm sitting here in second place.

Because somewhere the one

I wanna be with's

With somebody else

Oh god, I wanna be that

Someone that you're with

I wanna be that

Someone that you're with

And I can talk about it all day long

'til I run out of breath

But I still wanna be that

Someone that you're with

I've got to be that

Someone that you're with

And I'm pacing by the phone

'cause I hate to be alone

And if you're out there with him

Somewhere and just about to kiss

God, I wanna be that

Someone that you're with.

Well somewhere the one

I wanna be with's

With somebody else

Oh god, I wanna be that

Someone that you're with

And I can talk about it all day long

'til I run out of breath

But I still wanna be that

Someone that you're with

I've got to be that

Someone that you're with

And I'm pacing by the phone

'cause I hate to be alone

And if you're out there with him

Somewhere and just about to kiss

God, I've got to be that

Someone that

I wanna be that someone that

I've got to be that

Someone that you're with...
