Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Waiter, could we have the same table we had yesterday?
[Verse 2]
Here we are again
Sipping our drinks just like friends
I wonder if they see the sparkle in your eyes
I wonder if they know that I'm not your guy
Hmm, hmm
[Verse 3]
I wonder if they see
That you don't belong to me
Wish that you could be mine
Mine
All mine
Hmm, hmm
[Verse 4]
It'll be hard for him to understand
I am his friend, and he is your man
I wonder what my lady would say
If she knew I met you every day
Hmm, hmm
[Verse 5]
Sooner or later
Don't you know they're gonna find out and they'll hate us
Oh, I wish that you could be mine
Mine
All mine
Mmm, hmm
[Verse 6]
It's 2 a.m., the place is gonna close
The bartender looks as though he knows
Everybody's, everybody's made it home
Here we sit again, all alone
Mmm, hmm
[Verse 7]
I've gotta get up at eight
Don't you know I've got to explain why I'm so late
Mmm, I wish I didn't have to go home
Whoa, whoa, go home
I wish that you were mine, baby
Oh, I'd give you the world
And every little thing that your heart desires
Hmm, hmm, hmm, hmm, hmm
My, my, my, yeah, yeah
[Verse 8]
It'll be hard, so hard for him to understand
I am his friend and don't you know he's your man
I wonder what, I wonder what my lady would say
If she knew I met you every day
Oh
