Lyrics
[Chorus]
I wish he was my boyfriend
I wish he was my boyfriend
I'd love him to the very end, but instead, he is just a friend
I wish he was my boyfriend
[Verse 1]
There's nothin' worse than sittin' all alone at home
And waitin', waitin', waitin', waitin', waitin' by the phone
I hope that he's at home, waitin' by his phone
I wonder if he knows that I want him
[Chorus]
I wish he was my boyfriend
I wish he was my boyfriend
I'd love him to the very end, but instead, he is just a friend
I wish he was my boyfriend
[Verse 2]
The other girl is not like me, she's prettier and skinnier
She has a college degree, I dropped out when I was 17
If I could only get her out of the picture
Then he would know how much I want him
[Verse 3]
One day I'll make him mine, and we'll be together all the time
We'll sit and watch the sunrise, and gaze into each other's eyes
I know that he knows, know that he knows
I know that he wants to be my boyfriend
Boyfriend
Boyfriend
[Chorus]
I'd love him to the very end, but instead, he is just a friend
I wish he was my boyfriend
I wish he was my boyfriend
I'd love him to the very end, but instead, he is just a friend
I wish he was my boyfriend
