Wish That You Were Mine Songtext
von The Manhattans

Waiter, could we have the same table we had yesterday?

Here we are again
Sipping our drinks just like friends
I wonder if they see the sparkle in your eyes
I wonder if they know that I′m not your guy, mm-hm

I wonder if they see
That you don't belong to me

Wish that you could be mine
Mine
All mine

It′ll be hard for him to understand
I am his friend and he is your man
I wonder what my lady would say
If she knew I met you everyday, mm-hm

Sooner or later
Don't you know, they're gonna find out and they′ll hate us


Oh, I wish that you could be mine
Mine
All mine

It′s 2 a.m., the place is gonna close
The bartender looks as though he knows
Everybody's, everybody′s made it home
Here we sit again all alone

Mm-hm, I've got to get up at 8
Don′t you know, I've got to explain why I′m so late

Mm, I wish I didn't have to go home
Whoa-oh-oh-oh-ooh, whoa-oh-oh-oh, go home
I wish that you were mine, baby
Oh, I'd give you the world
And every little thing your little heart desires

My, my, my, yeah

It′ll be hard
So hard for him to understand
I am his friend and don′t you know, he is your man?
I wonder what, I wonder what my lady would say
If she knew I met you everyday
Oh-oh-oh
