A Wish For Something More

Oh, the sun is shinin' far too bright

For it to still be night

Oh, the air feels so cold, so cold and old

How can it be light?

Oh, let's take a walk outside

See the world through each other's eyes

I wish I was your only one

I think you're beautiful, but your hair is a mess

And your shoes are untied

But that's what I love best

And I, I wish I was the one

You lonely, lonely, son

And you looked at me that way

I wish for long, lingering glances

Fairy tale romances

Every single day

And you look at me and say

I'm your best friend, every day

But I wish for somethin', wish for somethin' more

Oh, I love you like a friend

But let us not pretend

How I wish for somethin', wish for somethin' more

And, oh, the grass is so green

But I can't see anythin' past your eyes

I'm fixated on your smile

Cherry lips make life worthwhile

I'm thinkin' these things, what I'm tryin' to say

Is life gets in my way

Every single day

And I, I wish I was the one

You lonely, lonely, son

And you looked at me that way

I wish for long, lingering glances

Fairy tale romances

Every single day

And you look at me and say

I'm your best friend, every day

But I wish for somethin', wish for somethin' more

Oh, I love you like a friend

But let us not pretend

How I wish for somethin', wish for somethin' more

Now, the sun is fadin'

All the rain is comin' down

And I'm lookin' at your face

And you're lookin' at the ground

I see diamonds in your dreams

I se pearls around your neck

I see everythin' that's beautiful

Oh, everythin' that's beautiful

I wish I was the one

You, lonely, lonely son

And you looked at me that way

I wish for long, lingering glances

Fairy tale romances

Every single day

And you look at me and say

I'm your best friend, every day

But I wish for somethin', wish for somethin' more

Oh, I love you like a friend

But let's not pretend

How I wish for somethin', wish for somethin' more
