Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I wish he was my boyfriend
I wish she was my girlfriend
I'd love them till the very end
But instead they are just a friend
Wish he was my boyfriend
[Verse 2]
There's nothing worse than sitting all alone at home
And waiting, waiting, waiting, waiting
Waiting by the phone
I hope that she's at home waiting by her phone
I wonder if they know that I want them
[Verse 3]
I wish she was my girlfriend
I wish he was my boyfriend
I'd love them till the very end
But instead they are just a friend
Wish they were my partner
[Verse 4]
The other girl is not like me
She's prettier and skinnier
They have a college degree
I dropped out when I was seventeen
If I could only get them out of the picture
Then they would know how much I want them
[Verse 5]
One day I'll make them mine
And we'll be together all the time
Sit and watch the sunrise
Gaze into each other's eyes
Know that he knows
I know that she knows
I know that he wants to be my boyfriend
Girlfriend
Partner
[Verse 6]
I'd love them till the very end
But instead they are just a friend
Wish they were my partner
I wish she was my girlfriend
I'd love him till the very end
But instead he is just a friend
Wish he was my boyfriend
