Wish That You Were Mine Lyrics

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 am not your guy, hmm-hmm
I wonder if they see that you don't belong to me
Wish that you could be mine
Mine, all mine, hmm

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, mmm-hmm

Sooner or later, don't you know
They're gonna find out and they're haters
Oh, I wish that you could be mine
Mine, all mine, hmm

It's 2 AM 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, hmm-hmm
I've gotta get up at eight
Don't you know I've got to explain why I'm so late, mmm
I wish I didn't have to go home

Woah-oh, woah-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, mmm
My, my, my, yeah, 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, oh, yeah
