I Wish It Was Me

Known each other since forever
You always seem to have my heart
Said that we'd end up together

But I never knew where to start

And everytime you find somebody
And tell me how you think they're the one
It's hard for me to take
You loved me in a way that I don't want

You look at me
Like I'm someone you only need
When it goes wrong
But you look at him
Like he's your missing piece
And darling, I wish it was me
I wish it was me

Oh, it's so hard to be the reason
The reason you can sleep at night
The one you miss so much
You're barely breathing
The face you see
When you turn out the lights

And every time you've got nobody
I'm thinking maybe I could be the one
It's hard for me to take
You loved me in a way that I don't want

You look at me
Like I'm someone you only need
When it goes wrong
But you look at him
Like he's your missing piece
And darling, I wish it was me

The music fades
The lights come on
And I just want
To take you home
But you whispered to him
That you're ready to leave
And darling, I wish it was me
I wish it was me

And I almost told you
About a million times
Oh, I was tripping for words
I never seem to find
Just a little closer
It's getting harder to hide
I keep losing the lights
But the answer's right there in your eyes

You look at me
Like I'm someone you only need
When it goes wrong
But you look at him
Like he's your missing piece
And darling, I wish it was me

You look at me
Like I'm someone you only need
When it goes wrong
But you look at him
Like he's your missing piece
And darling, I wish it was me

The music fades
The lights come on
And I just want
To take you home
But you whispered to him
That you're ready to leave
And darling, I wish it was me
I wish it was me
