I Wish

I watch you walk away

With a special air

I know you're out of my league

But doesn't mean I can't try

I watch you joke with your friend

And wish I could be there with you

I watch you act silly as can be

And wish you could do that around me

I watch you yell at games

And cheer on our team

And deep down inside

I wish you were cheering for me

I watch you play your heart out

For a special win

And I wish I could cheer for you

And not worry about people laughing

I watch you sit in class

Sleeping and dreaming up a dream

And I wish I was in that dream

Where you were loving me

I watch you sing off-tone to a girl

And I wish it was to me

I watch you hang out with your friends

Joking, yelling, just having fun

And I wish I was with you

Having my opnion voiced

I watch you from the side

Wishing I was next to you

I wish upon a star

A dead dandelion, a wish bone

That one day

You will love me too
