It Might As Well Be You

Compositor: Justin Currie

There is nobody here tonight, who doesn't dance to the same tune as I
Looking for that special someone new, and hey babe it might as well be you.

And as I fumble through my change, the dance floor illuminates
And there you are again.
I'm looking for someone to hold on to and hey babe, it might as well be you.

It might as well be you that I wake up to tomorrow
And it might as well be you that tonight whispers my name.
And it might as well be you that I cling to, that I laugh with and sing to,
That I kiss goodbye to never see again.

And through the fog that love creates the night is filled with all the usual mistakes.
They say you're looking lonely babe, and they've been looking too,
And hey, they might well be for you.

And by the light of cigarettes we introduce ourselves a way you don't forget.
I'm looking for something and anything will do.
So hey babe it might as well be you.

And if we go home tonight, you might find the very thing
That come the morning light, might well have washed your mind of him.
So let me in tonight so we two losers might start to win.

And it might as well be you that I wake up to tomorrow
It might as well be you that tonight will call my name,
It might as well be you that I cling to, that I laugh with and sing to,
Yeah babe, it might as well be you that reminds me,
It was once her here beside me,
That I kissed goodbye to never see again.
