Lyrics

How I wish that you were
How I wish that you were
How I wish that you were mine
My cherie amour, lovely as a summer day
My cherie amour, distant as the milky way
My cherie amour, pretty little one that I adore
You're the only girl my heart beats for.
How I wish that you were mine
In a cafe or sometimes on a crowded street
I've been near you, but you never really noticed me.
Oh cherie amour, won't you tell me how could you ignore
That behind that little smile I wore
How I wish that you were mine
La, la, la, la, la, la
La, la, la, la, la, la
La, la, la, la, la, la
La, la, la, la, la, la
Maybe someday, you'll see my face among the crowd.
Maybe someday, I'll share your little distant cloud.
Oh, cherie amour, pretty little one that I adore,
You're the only girl my heart beats for.
How I wish that you were mine.
(Instrumental)
How I wish that you were
How I wish that you were
How I wish that you were mine
Oh, woah, oh
How I wish that you were
How I wish that you were
How I wish that you were mine
