Known each other since forever

You always seemed to have my heart

You said that we'd end up together

But I never knew where to start

And everytime you find somebody

And tell me how you think they’re the one

It's hard for me to take

You loved me in a way that I don't want

You look at me like I’m someone

You only need when it goes wrong

But you look at him like he's your missing piece

And darling, I wish it was me

I wish it was me

Always hoped I'd be the reason

The reason you can't sleep at night

The one you miss so much, you're barely breathing

The face you see when you turn out the lights

And every time you've got nobody

I'm thinking maybe I could be the one

It's hard for me to take

You loved me in a way that I don't want

You look at me like I’m someone

You only need when it goes wrong

But you look at him like he’s your missing piece

And darling, I wish it was me

The music fades, the lights come on

And I just want to take you home

But you whispered to him that you're ready to leave

And darling, I wish it was me, I wish it was me

And I almost told you about a million times

Always tripping over words I never seem to find

Just a little closer, it’s getting harder to hide

I keep losing the lights

But the answer's right there in your eyes

You look at me like I'm someone

You only need when it goes wrong

But you look at him like he's your missing piece

And darling, I wish it was me

Oh, you look at me like I’m someone

You only need when it goes wrong

But you look at him like he's your missing piece

And darling, I wish it was me

The music fades, the lights come on

And I just want to take you home

But you whispered to him that you're ready to leave

And darling, I wish it was me, I wish it was me
