I Wish It Was Me

I see you every day

When you walk by this way

You go into that house next door

Stay an hour or so

Oh, I don't know

Who you're going to see

But I wish it was me you loved

Who is sharing some of your time

Oh, love

Who could call you mine, all mine

Oh, love

I said I wish it was me you loved

Oh, I saw him today

For the very first time

And when you put your arms around him

Ooh, baby, I almost went out of my mind

Cause with him, you seem so happy

Ooh, how I wished it was me

Who was making you laugh that way

Oh, love

Who was hearing those sweet words you had to say

Oh, love

I said I wish it was me you loved

When I saw you kiss him

Ooh, it made me feel so sad

My heart cried out in pain, love

Oh baby, because it hurt me so bad

But all I could do was stand there

And wish, wish it was me, love

I said I wish it was me you loved
