Angol
Angol
I'd like to be you for a day
I'd like to climb into the dreams you hide
To know the grown-up and the child inside
Whatever makes you smile
I'd like to see it
Go ahead and free it
I'd like to be you for a day
Are you excited by electric trains?
And kind of lonely every time it rains?
To stare out through your eyes
Would start revealing
All the things you're feeling
What's on your mind when you hear a tune
Or ride a toy balloon?
Just let me look
Let me read your book and learn it
Loving every page as I turn it
I'd like to be you for a day
There's so much more I need to understand
It's not enough to simply hold your hand
And hear the words you say
I wanna touch you, I wanna reach you
In every single way
I'd like to be you for a day
To put you back on the track when you go astray
I'd like to be you for a day
To know your arms and to share the games that you play
I'd like to be you for a day
I'd like to be you for a day
There's so much more I need to understand
It's not enough to simply hold your hand
And hear the words you say
I wanna touch you, I wanna reach you
In every single way
I'd like to be you for a day
To put you back on the track when you go astray
I'd like to be you for a day
To know your arms and to share the games that you play
I'd like to be you for a day...

Recorded in 1976 as a demo for the movie Freaky Friday, and pressed by Disneyland Records in 1977 but never released. [https://www.discogs.com/release/10584590-The-Osmonds-Id-Like-To-Be-You-F...]
Although the Osmonds are credited on the record, only Merrill Osmond provides vocals. In the movie itself, the song is sung by Barbara Harris and Jodie Foster as the two protagonists.
