You're leaving
You won't come back
And what will I do?
I won't die

Could it be by chance that you know
Someone with your pretty face and your personality?

Who likes cinema and the books you read
Who is independent and as intelligent as you
Who is frank and whose hair smells like your shampoo
Because if I can't be with you I want to be with someone like

You will see
You won't be able
To stop
My wanting

Could it be that you have a friend out there
That you could introduce me to and is perfect for me?

Who talks to me about science and enjoys going camping
Who instead of driving, she prefers to walk
Who wants to bike from Tanzania to Kathmandu
Because if I can't be with you I want to be with someone like you

You will never
Want me
I'll look for someone else

Whose dream is to win the Nobel Peace Prize
Who doesn't eat meat because she knows well what's behind it
Who is sporty and loves to cook
Who always has extra time to go dancing

Who is an activist with a sense of humor
Who gets excited to undress in front of the fan
Who loves art and bamboo sandals
Because if I can't be with you I want to be with someone like you

Because if I can't be with you I want to be with someone like you
