Verse 1: Chris Martin
Ive been reading books of old
The legends and the myths
Achilles and his gold
Hercules and his gifts
Spidermans control
And Batman with his fists
And clearly I dont see myself upon that list

Pre-Chorus: Chris Martin
But she said, whered you wanna go?
How much you wanna risk?
Im 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
Ive 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 Im not the kind of person that it fits

Pre-Chorus: Chris Martin
She said, whered you wanna go?
How much you wanna risk?
Im 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
Whered you wanna go?
How much you wanna risk?
Im 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
