• Blonde flows like a river
    hands sift through the gold that is your hair
    Souls swim in your eyes
    frozen, trapped,
    With skin like cream
    in sight and touch
    Cheeks of a rose
    smile so sweet you know it tastes like honey
    I wish I was you.

    You sit so tall
    though I, in truth, are higher than you.
    Personality flows through your veins
    compared, I have no pulse
    You can hardly tell
    but he leans his head on your feet
    A pang of sadness, longing
    rings through me like a gunshot
    I wish I was you

    You have him, the one I wanted
    you'll never know, I'll lie for your sake
    Like a river smooth
    you swept him from my grasp
    I knew you would.

    He'll still talk
    Act as though he doesn't know
    But I won't her him now
    I'll hear the sound of the voice that could have loved me
    Hear the sound of the voice that will never love me
    Hear the sound of the voice that loves you and no one else
    Hear your heart. Beating.
    You can't possibly understand.

    I wish I was you.
