i wish i had a voice
smooth as velvet and
sweet as honey so
you'd listen when
i speak.
i see the way you cling
to her words like cherries
on a tree i know your
mind wanders
when i tell you how i feel.
i wish i were so
beautiful
that i could take
your breath away,
i wish i could
make you shiver with
just a simple hey.
i wish you'd think of me
when you see
a sunrise
and maybe,
just maybe
you'd want
to be mine.
oh i wish i were funny
i wish i could make you
forget all your worries
i wish you found me
witty
i wish i had the confidence
to tell you all these things,
do something about my feelings
but
we both know i won't.
( i wish i were a braver girl. )
so instead, i'll toss a coin.
wishing in this wishing well,
wishing for what i can't find
in myself.
see, i wished on the stars
to meet a boy like you.
but now that i have
it's caused my absolute ruin!
see, i thought
a boy like you
could fix my
problems for me ,
but you've added to the list
you've made me wish to be
somebody else.
oh i thought you were different
i thought you were different
i thought you were different
i was wrong.
