No Soy Yo, Sos Vos

I admire so much your elegance when you walk,
how well you express yourself in front of others,
the words you use when you speak,
what you know about general culture.

Your sympathy and way of reacting,
that look, so much confidence,
hair and spectacular physique,
your customs, your social status.
You're great...

How interesting and pleasant you are,
your clothes and your seductive style.
Everyone always pays a lot of attention to you,
I would really like to be like you.

I'm not interested in knowing about your fears,
about your pains, if boredom sets in,
nor about your failures or your ugly memories,
I just want the good...

It's not me, it's you. It's not me, it's you.
It's not me, it's you. I always change roles, I'm never myself.
I want what happens to you to happen to me.
It's not me, it's you. It's not me, it's you. I'm not myself anymore.

Suddenly I play at being a great writer,
and then a hooligan or a doctor.
If there's a conflict, I'm a lawyer,
and today I choose to be you.

It's not me, it's you. It's not me, it's you.
It's not me, it's you. I always change roles, I'm never myself.
I want what happens to you to happen to me.
It's not me, it's you. It's not me, it's you. I'm not myself anymore.

What's most frightening is being left with no one,
face to face with loneliness...
And actually, I would like to be like the sea,
which is what it is without trying to be more...
With so many people pretending to be someone else,
distrust one another...

It's not me, it's you. It's not me, it's you.
It's not me, it's you. I always change roles, I'm never myself.
I want what happens to you to happen to me.
It's not me, it's you. It's not me, it's you. I'm not myself.

{I would like to be me}
It's not me, it's you. It's not me, it's you.
{but you're better}
It's not me, it's you. I always change roles, I'm never myself.
{I would like to be me}
I want what happens to you to happen to me.
{but you're better}
It's not me, it's you. It's not me, it's you. I'm not myself.

{I would like to be me} You are you, I am you;
{but you're better} and I'm not here to meet your expectations.
{I would like to be me} You are you, I am you,
{but you're better} you are here to meet mine.

{I would like to be me}
It's not me, it's you. It's not me, it's you.
{but you're better}
It's not me, it's you. I always change roles, I'm never myself.

{I would like to be me}
I want what happens to you to happen to me.
{but you're better}
It's not me, it's you. It's not me, it's you. I'm not myself.

{I would like to be me} With so many people
{but you're better} pretending to be someone else,
distrust one another...
