Song Lyrics
I reside in 209, you're in 208
You moved in last Friday night,
and I just couldn't wait
So I tried to call across the hall,
to ask you out someday
But a line formed outside your door, and I was way too late

[CHORUS]
Well I'd rather start off slow
This whole thing's like
some sort of race
Instead of winning what I want
I'm sitting here in second place

Because somewhere
the one I wanna be with's
with somebody else
Oh god, I wanna be that
someone that you're with
I wanna be that someone
that you're with
And I can talk about it all day long
'til I run out of breath
But I still wanna be that
someone that you're with
I've got to be that
someone that you're with
And I'm pacing by the phone
'Cause I hate to be alone
And if you're out there with him
somewhere and just about to kiss
God I wanna be that
someone that you're with

Well I hear your favorite songs
you sing along with everyday
And I borrow things that
I don't need for conversation sake
Last night I heard your key,
it hit your lock at 4 AM
Instead of being out with me
you must be out with them

[CHORUS]

Because somewhere the one
I wanna be with's
with somebody else
Oh god, I wanna be that
someone that you're with
I wanna be that
someone that you're with
And I can talk about it all day long
'til I run out of breath
But I still wanna be that
someone that you're with
I've got to be that
someone that you're with
And I'm pacing by the phone
'Cause I hate to be alone
And if you're out there with him
somewhere and just about to kiss
God, I wanna be that
someone that you're with

Perfection!! God I've loved this song and thought of it as a K/L song ever since I heard it. I just can't believe how awesome a vid it made. I love the part with him taking the pyramid ball. It matched the lyrics so perfectly and I would never have thought of that.

Tres, tres, tres awesome. :D

*cheers loudly* that was frikkin' awesome! No one uses Baltar much so that was great to see, and the Sam versus Lee shots were delicious. I know we're supposed to feel sorry for Lee but I ended up drooling over all the hot man candy with Kara sprinkles.

You did a great job!

[nebakanezer]

*SQUEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE*

Did I tell you I FRAKKING LOVE IT?

Did I tell you HOW FRAKKING COOL IT IS?

Did I say THANK YOU SOOOO MUCH for making the vid that I've had rattling around in my head for as long as I've known that song?

YOU are RAD!!! :)

I'm sure this made d very happy :D Watching the vid makes me feel so bad for Lee. Kara's always sucking face with some other schmo. At least Sam is a hottie and not a weasel like Baltar! Thanks for making another awesome vid. You chose some great clips.

Me too! I loved that scene for the "borrow things that I don't need for conversation's sake" line so much!

Thank you so much! I'm so happy that the vid turned out well because the song is soooo perfect for them ;)

Heehee, vidding is just that much fun when there is so much pretty to work with!

I ended up drooling over all the hot man candy with Kara sprinkles
LOL! I think I'm going to end up making a Kara/Anders vid soon, if not next. I've got several song ideas rolling around in my brain...

Thanks again--I'm so glad you enjoyed it ;)

[boom-queen.livejournal.com]

It's all your fault (when I last checked, my iTunes showed that I had played this song 47 frakkin times--that's just craziness!) so I'm sooooooo glad you love it!

And I've still got some awesome ideas for a crack!vid for "Next Contestant"--I just have to clips some more episodes before I have all the possessive-Lee I'll need for it ;)

[boom-queen.livejournal.com]

Heh, yeah--I think D is pretty happy with it ;)

At least Sam is a hottie and not a weasel like Baltar!
Too true--it was almost painful to give Baltar so much screen-time in the vid because I would MUCH RATHER give the time to the pretty boys, but it worked out best with the song/lyrics.

Thanks for watching! And you know, YOU can always request a vid too if you ever have a song you're dying to see :)

Nicely done! You told the story very well, with great clip choice. The song is really Lee, too. And I love the way it ended. Kara cocks her head exactly to the beat. :)

[nebakanezer]

'Someone that you're with' is at 25 in my itunes and 'Fight for all the Wrong Reasons' is at 49! BUT that does not count ALL THE MANY times that I listened to these songs in my car! :)

Yay for more vids! :) You are made of awesomeness!

Oh, I really, really loved this vid!! *squeees* And that's despite not liking the song! But you totally sold it to me as a perfect Kara/Lee song. It made me really feel Lee's frustration and desire and it made me laugh and bite my lip. The funniest bit for me was Lee running his mouth off to the line 'I can talk about it all day long'. Heeeeee! So Lee. :-)

[boom-queen.livejournal.com]

Hehe, I love your Emo!Lee icon :)

Thanks! Matching the clips with the tempo is one the most fun/challenging things about fast-paced songs, so I'm glad that you thought it worked well.

[boom-queen.livejournal.com]

The funniest bit for me was Lee running his mouth off to the line 'I can talk about it all day long'.
Yay! That was one of nebakanezer's favorite parts too, when she was first beta'ing the vid.

I'm extra flattered that you like the vid if the song wasn't your style! I wasn't too keen on Nickelback at first either, but the song kept making me laugh--especially with Lee in mind--so I caved :)

Awsome! This is a perfect Lee's POV piece.
