    Story Behind the Song
    This song is an optimist's cynical view on optimism. It was written at two different periods. The first half of the song was written during a long distance romance. The second half was written a year later during a romance that never happenned for reasons left unsaid.

    Lyrics
    I'd Like to Be
    Written by Chris Casperson

    Sometimes it seems that its so damn simple
    Sometimes it seems that its so damn hard
    Sometimes it seems I'm going on forever
    Traveling down this long and winding road
    But now that I look back
    I haven't gone that far at all

    Chorus:

    But I'd like to think that world
    it was perfect
    I'd like to think that it was
    love without all the pain
    I'd like to be as safe as
    I am in your arms
    Wooo..Wooo..Wooo..I
    Girl I'd just like to be.

    Sometimes Late at night I hear your voice inside my head
    And I lye awake, Analyze, all the things that you said
    Girl you know, it ain't easy
    For these hearts to tell them how they feel inside
    And they won't break the silence till you know..
    Till you know you have some place they can hide

    But I'd like to think that world
    it was perfect
    I'd like to think that it was
    love without the pain
    I'd like to be as safe as
    I am in your arms
    Wooo..Wooo..Wooo..I
    Girl I'd just like to be.
    But It seems I all just a lie
    Not you and me but this crazy, crazy dream of ours
    That life's as easy as it is in your hold
    Wooo...Wooo.No..I've got to go
    Woohoo...Woo.hoo..no.. I've got to go
    Down a road to anywhere
    Anywhere but here
    Down a road to anywhere
    Anywhere but here
    I'd like to be....
    Anywhere but here
    I'd like to be..........
