I Wish We Could Be Lyrics & Chords

I Wish We Could Be

Girl I’m waiting here so patiently
Hang on every single word you breathe
Leave me wanting more than anything
For you to free me from my suffering

There’s a void inside me you could fill
That no one else has and never will
If only you were someone else
And I were anybody but myself

You and I knew from the start
We could never touch each other’s hearts
Coming from the places we had been
Too afraid to let a lover in

Still I try so hard to feel
Anything I can to make it real
Hoping one day that we’ll recognize
A sense of purpose in each other’s eyes

I wish you could be the girl that I need you to be
I wish I could be the man of your dreams
I wish you could be the girl that I need you to be
I wish I could be the man of your dreams

I tell myself a thousand lies
Every time you look into my eyes
That maybe one day I will see
Something in them light a fire in me

I can’t seem to let myself let go
And I can’t find a way to let you know
That the only way we stand a chance
Is under any other circumstance

Someday I know I must admit
This whole charade was for my benefit
To give me hope that I could find someone
To resurrect my dead belief in love

In a different place and time
With different bodies, souls and minds
There’d be hope and faith and love and trust
Something perfect inside each of us

I wish you could be the girl that I need you to be
I wish I could be the man of your dreams
I wish you could be the girl that I need you to be
I wish I could be the man of your dreams
