I Could Be in Love With Someone Like You (Live)

Lyrics

My first crush on an Irish girl
 I was ten years old and her name was Elaine
 Little redhead girl, well, she looked like you, but if you were ten
 Which you're clearly not
 Not that you look old but you get my-
 I'll just stop now
 Okay, wait
 'Cause I had a point, no, I swear I did, well, I think I did
 Which is all my life
 Or since I was ten
 I have had a yen for an Irish lass
 Because God knows why
 Like the ancient curse of Shiksa queens
 Do I talk too much?
 Which is not to say I would want Elaine
 Who turned out to be when I last checked in
 A Republican and a parapsychologist
 If you've got a four leaf clover
 You could make my dreams come true
 I will be your Hebrew slave
 Just do the things that Irish girls do
 Talk about potato famine
 I begin to cry on cue
 Sing about the emerald isle and
 Get your Irish eyes to smilin'
 I could be in love with someone like you
 Okay, yeah, I just said that-
 ♪
 I just left a relationship with a lovely girl named Alyssa Levine
 She was really great
 It was all my fault
 I just got upset
 'Cause she slept with my brother
 So I made a vow not to get caught up in the dating scene
 Or the whole routine
 With the cousin's friend
 Or the who-knows-what
 Like I need that shit
 I got marks to make
 I've got steps to climb
 It's the perfect time
 I got books to write, I got things to do
 I go out my door and bump into you
 And the jig is up and my vow is through
 I don't know what I'm doing
 But come in and ruin me
 I will write my own Ulysses
 If you're there to show me how
 Take me back to Glocca Morra
 Bathe me in the river Shenandoah
 If you'll be Mrs. O'Leary
 Baby, I will be your cow
 I'll deliver shamrocks daily
 Buy your pa a new shillelagh
 I could be in love with someone like-
 You could be my inspiration
 And get me past this block
 And walk me through the great unknown
 You could be my true salvation
 Unchain me from this rock
 And keep me from being alone
 'Cause I'm no good at being alone
 Take me to another level
 Let me play in bigger halls
 I will do a river dance
 As long as you keep answerin' my calls
 Get me out of my apartment
 Keep me from my empty walls
 Someone hire John McCormack
 Start the wearing of the green
 Let me win the Irish sweepstakes
 Let me take you home, Kathleen
 I could be in love with someone
 I could be in love with someone
 I could be in love with someone
 Like you
 Awesome
 Thank you
 Thank you very much
