A Wish For Something More lyrics

Oh the sun is shining 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

Fairytale romances every single day

And you look at me and say

I'm your best friend every day

But I wish for something, wish for something more

Oh, I love you like a friend but let's not pretend

How I wish for something, wish for something more

Oh the grass is so green

But I can't see anything, past your eyes

I'm fixated on your smile

Your cherry lips make life worthwhile

I'm thinking these things

What I'm trying 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

Fairytale romances every single day

And you look at me and say

I'm your best friend every day

But I wish for something, wish for something more

Oh, I love you like a friend but let's not pretend

How I wish for something, wish for something more

Now the sun is fading and the rain is coming down

And I'm looking at your face but your looking at the ground

I see diamonds in your dreams I see pearls around your neck

I see everything that's beautiful, everything 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

Fairytale romances every single day

And you look at me and say

I'm your best friend every day

But I wish for something, wish for something more

Oh, I love you like a friend but let's not pretend

How I wish for something, wish for something more
