Something Just Like This - Coldplay LYRICS

SOMETHING JUST LIKE THIS

I’ve been reading books of old, the legends and the myths
Achilles and his gold, Hercules and his gifts
Spiderman’s control and Batman with his fists, and clearly I don’t see myself upon that list
She said ‘Where’d you wanna go, how much you wanna risk
I’m not looking for somebody with some superhuman gifts
Some superhero, some fairytale bliss, just something I can turn to, somebody I can kiss
I want something just like this,  do do do do etc    I want something just like this,  do do do etc
I want something just like this, I want something just like this

I’ve been reading books of old, the legends and the myths,
The Testiments they told, the moon and it’s eclipse
And Superman unrolls, a suit before he lifts,   but I’m not the kind of the person that it fits
She said ‘Where’d you wanna go, how much you wanna risk
I’m not looking for somebody with some superhuman gifts
Some superhero, some fairytale bliss, just something I can turn to, somebody I can kiss
I want something just like this,   I want something just like this,   I want something just like this
(piano solo – very quiet)  do do do do  do etc  I want something just like this,  do do do etc

Where’d you wanna go, how much you wanna risk
I’m not looking for somebody with some superhuman gifts
Some superhero, some fairytale bliss, just something I can turn to, somebody I can kiss
I want something just like this,  (uke/piano solo)  x4     I want something just like this,
Doo doo doo doo doo  I want something just like this,  
doo doo doo doo I want something just like this.
