I cannot stop myself from listening to this song repeatedly. First of all, I was surprised to find out that James Arthur hails from Middlesbrough, UK when I was practically there doing my medical elective! All I know about him is that he is the winner of X Factor and nothing more than that. Turns out there were couple of issues that happened to him and he suffered anxiety and depression for quite some time before returning back to music industry.

He has released his second studio album "Back From The Edge" in October 2016 where most of the songs reflect his hardship and struggles throughout the years. "Can I Be Him" music video portrays him standing in the metro having eye contact with two girls. The soulful song highlights his incredible and passionate vocals. If you have not already heard or watched the music video, watch it down below. Let me know what do you think about the song in the comment box. Till then, bye!


Can I Be Him lyrics

You walked into the room and now my heart has been stolen
You took me back in time to when I was unbroken
Now you're all I want
And I knew it from the very first moment
'Cause a light came on when I heard that song and I want you to sing it again

I swear that every word you sing, you wrote them for me
Like it was a private show, but I know you never saw me
When the lights come on and I'm on my own
Will you be there to sing it again?
Could I be the one you talk about in all your stories
Can I be him?

I heard there was somone but I know he don't deserve you
If you were mine I'd never let anyone hurt you, no, no
I wanna dry those tears, kiss those lips
It's all that I've been thinking about
'Cause a light came on when I heard that song and I want you to sing it again

I swear that every word you sing, you wrote them for me
Like it was a private show, but I know you never saw me
When the lights come on and I'm on my own
Will you be there to sing it again
Could I be the one you talk about in all your stories?

Can I be the one
Can I be the one
Can I be the one
Oh, can I, can I be him?

Won't you sing it again?
Oh, when you sing it again
Can I be him?
Oh, sing it again, yeah
Oh, when you sing it again
Can I be him?

I swear that every word you sing, you wrote them for me
Like it was a private show, but I know you never saw me
When the lights come on and I'm on my own
Will you be there, will you be there?
Can I be the one you talk about in all your stories

Can I be him?
Can I be him?
Can I be him?
Can I be him?
