I wish I was there
I wish I was there with you
Why can't I be there?
I wish I was there
Girl to show to you I care
Anytime I'm gone
I'm trying to stay strong
Whenever I look at the moon
I know you're looking at it too
Your love keeps me together
Whenever I feel broken apart
And whenever you pass by
You give my heart a star
And now I wish I was there
I wish I was there with you
Why can't I be was there?
I wish I was there
Girl to show to you I care
I don't understand
Why you have to let me go
You were my only hope
I wish I was there
Girl to show to you I care
Whenever I talk to you
I feel alive again
And whenever I walk with you
I feel like it was just pretend
Whenever I think about you
I start to lose my mind
Because you're gone
And thinking about it now
I wish I was there
I wish I was there with you
Why can't I be there?
I wish I was there
Girl to show to you I care
I don't understand
Why you have to let me go
You were my only hope
I wish I was there
Girl to show to you I care
I wish I was there with you
I wish I was there
I wish I was there
I wish I was there with you
Why can't I be there?
I wish I was there
Girl to show to you I care
I don't understand
Why you have to let me go
You were my only hope
I wish I was there
