The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

Tim, wish you were born a girl,

So I could've been your boyfriend.

I know it's not possible now.

I just never met a girl I like half as much as you.

And we could lay around in bed, stay there all day,

Or at least until the afternoon

And I could make you spaghetti with tomato sauce

With just a touch of oregano and a parsley stem.

And then when you got sick,

I could take the day off work.

I could've made you chicken soup,

And we could watch soap operas

- oh, those TV dramas!

I could catch your cold

and you could take care of me.

If I could've met you at school, or met you at work,

It would have changed everything.

Those years of losing, confusion and insecurity,

They would have been shared,

they would have been easier.

Tim, wish you were born a girl,

So I could've been your fiancé.

I'm not saying you can't be all these things for me,

But it's just not the same because you're a man,

and so am I.
