Something Just Like This

[Verse 1: Chris Martin]

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



[Pre-Chorus: Chris Martin]

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"



[Bridge: Chris Martin]

"I want something just like this

Doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo

Doo-doo-doo, doo-doo

Doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo

Oh I want something just like this

Doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo

Doo-doo-doo, doo-doo

Doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo"



[Chorus: Chris Martin]

"Oh I want something just like this

I want something just like this"



[Verse 2: Chris Martin]

I've been reading books of old

The legends and the myths

The testaments they told

The moon and its eclipse

And Superman unrolls

A suit before he lifts

But I'm not the kind of person that it fits



[Pre-Chorus: Chris Martin]

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 miss"



[Chorus: Chris Martin]

"I want something just like this

I want something just like this"



[Bridge: Chris Martin]

"Oh I want something just like this

Doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo

Doo-doo-doo, doo-doo

Doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo

Oh I want something just like this

Doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo

Doo-doo-doo, doo-doo

Doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo"



[Pre-Chorus: Chris Martin]

"Where d'ya 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"



[Chorus: Chris Martin]

"Oh I want something just like this

Oh I want something just like this

Oh I want something just like this

Oh I want something just like this"
