Lyrics : I Wish

Strung out on a man that I’m thinking I can save
The doses wax, the pleasures wane
And you stand with arms outstretched
Looking simple, fine, and plain
I wish I loved you anyway

Him with his boyish eyes
You with a vacant smile
If only people ever changed
But I’m quite set in my ways
And you’re blesséd as the day
I wish I loved you anyway

You and I weren’t made for love
Get it straight, our time won’t come
I was told when I was young
No crying in the rain

Hung up on the thought that the future could be light
I liked your bright naiveté
But every clever man
Has a melancholic mind
I wish I loved you anyway

Held down by the albatross
Strung up like a giant cross
I always break under its weight
‘Cause I’m quite set in my ways
You were just a holiday
I wish I loved you anyway

Maybe I’m not made for love
Maybe you’re too good for us
But your light heart for my dark lust
I guess I’ll never trade

It’s like I say
You were just a holiday
I wish I loved you anyway
I wish I loved you anyway
