"Wish That You Were Mine" lyrics
"Wish That You Were Mine"
Waiter, could we have the same table we had yesterday?
Here we are again
Sipping our drinks just like friends
I wonder if they see the sparkle in your eyes
I wonder if they know that I'm not your guy, mm-hm
I wonder if they see
That you don't belong to me
Wish that you could be mine
Mine
All mine
It'll be hard for him to understand
I am his friend and he is your man
I wonder what my lady would say
If she knew I met you everyday, mm-hm
Sooner or later
Don't you know, they're gonna find out and they'll hate us
Oh, I wish that you could be mine
Mine
All mine
It's 2 a.m., the place is gonna close
The bartender looks as though he knows
Everybody's, everybody's made it home
Here we sit again all alone
Mm-hm, I've got to get up at 8
Don't you know, I've got to explain why I'm so late
Mm, I wish I didn't have to go home
Whoa-oh-oh-oh-ooh, whoa-oh-oh-oh, go home
I wish that you were mine, baby
Oh, I'd give you the world
And every little thing your little heart desires
My, my, my, yeah
It'll be hard
So hard for him to understand
I am his friend and don't you know, he is your man?
I wonder what, I wonder what my lady would say
If she knew I met you everyday
Oh-oh-oh
