People Like Us(Original Broadway Cast/2000) - Toni Collette/Yancey Arias

作词：Michael John La Chuisa

作曲：Michael John La Chuisa

Always wanted to

see the lights of broadway

I always wanted to hear the traffic roar

I always wanted to be a part

Of New York city's great big heart

And now I am I couldn't ask for

I was that girl I'm all of them trapped in

A room full of shadows and not enough

Light and soon we will fade away into

The walls into the nothingness the end

People like us we get through the day

Surviving the city way better than most

We go through the motions

From nightcap to nightcap

Here but not here

With the heart of a ghost

People like us we meet up some night

In a room full of strangers

who call themselves

Friends

It feels like a dream

But it's too hard to tell

Where the dream begins

And the real world ends

And where where do we belong

We might have to ask ourselves

Where where do we belong

People like us

Private stock

Where

People like us we take lovers like pills

Just hoping to cure what

we know we can't fix

We'll lay in their arms

And we'll say pretty things

We will be there

But not there we most get our kicks

People like us we should get out kicks

And we heal awful fast

and we don't even scar

We are here but not here

In a roomful of friends

We could join in the fray

Or stay here where we are

And where

Where

Where do we belong

Do we need to ask ourselves

Where

Where

Where do we belong

People like us

Damaged goods

Where

We dance alone on a crowded floor

We weren't given much

And we don't expect much more

More is not a word we use

More would never be enough

People like us we slip back

through the cracks

We'll never be famous

so who's gonna care

Nobody needs us

And everyone's had us

We're here but not here

We've been there but not there

And where where do we belong

We only have ourselves

Where where do we belong

People like us

Lost

And found

Where

Where
