Joni Mitchell - Just Like Me lyrics

Your rating:

He's so independent

He acts like he couldn't care less for us all

He's someone's descendent

Their child

But he'll never acknowledge their call

He's afraid to be loved

And I know he's afraid not to be 

And he'll laugh and he'll cry

and someday he'll die

Just like me



Just like me

He's settling a score

With a world

That wants a reason

Every time you turn around

Just like me

He's looking for a door

Standing open, saying welcome

Come and lay your troubles down

Just like me



He'll drop his pretenses

You'll see through the stone to the heart of the man

But the moment he senses you've seen him

He'll leave you as fast as he can

He'll return to his shadows

Where no one can look in and see

And he'll wake in the night

And he'll cry like a child

Just like me



Just like me

He's settling a score

With a world that wants a reason

Every time you turn around

Just like me

He's looking for a door

Standing open, saying welcome

Come and lay your troubles down

Just like me



I've seen him look hungry for someone

To tell him "You're doing just fine"

The songs that he's sung me

Have loneliness woven between every line

With no strings to hold him

I guess he could call himself free

Yes, he's free to be empty and lonely and wrong

Just like me



Just like me

He's settling a score

With a world that wants a reason

Every time you turn around

Just like me

He's looking for a door

Standing open, saying welcome

Come and lay your troubles down

Just like me
