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]

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
