Lyrics Wish We Were - Smoking Popes

Wish We Were

There she stands
Just like someone that you see on a movie screen
Like a picture from the page of a magazine
And I have never seen a more beautiful beauty queen
And she stands
Just like something that was made a long time ago
Like a statue by that guy Michelangelo
And she don’t even know how much I really love her so
I wanna tell her but I’m way too scared
And my feeble heart is not prepared
For the damage if this love’s not shared by her
We’re not going out, I only wish we were
I only wish we were
There she stands
With the brilliance of the sun burning in her eyes
When I see her hanging out with those other guys
She doesn’t realize something in my heart just dies
I wanna tell her but I’m way too scared
And my feeble heart is not prepared
For the damage if this love’s not shared by her
We’re not going out, I only wish we were
I only wish we were
I can feel her warm within my arms
Just before the sound of my alarm
Calls me back to no one
I wanna tell her but I’m way too scared
And my feeble heart is not prepared
For the damage if this love’s not shared by her
We’re not going out, I only wish we were
I only wish we were
I only wish we were
I only wish we were
I only wish we were
I only wish we were
