I wish that I was older,
Old enough to be yours, mhmm
And I wish that I was wiser,
Wise enough to be strong-minded,
To keep up with the words you say
That make me feel so young
But I don´t know where this is going,
I´ve just been hoping
And I can see by your smile
That you´re glowing inside and out
Let´s not pretend like it´s not what it is,
When I´m just starting to realize
That I love you, ooh
And I wish that we were strangers,
Strange enough to go unnoticed from this crowd
And I wish that we were closer,
Close enough for me to hold you
When your lonely nights become too long to bear
But I don´t know where this is going,
I´ve just been hoping
And I can see by your smile
That you´re glowing inside and out
Let´s not pretend like it´s not what it is,
When I´m just starting to realize
That I love you, ooh
You hold your head up high,
Though it´s hard to, ooh
I can´t keep back,
I know I just want you, ooh
But I don´t know where this is going,
I´ve just been hoping
And I can see by your smile
That you´re glowing inside and out
Let´s not pretend like it´s not what it is,
When I´m just starting to realize
That I love you, ooh
I love you…
Old enough to be yours, mhmm
And I wish that I was wiser,
Wise enough to be strong-minded,
To keep up with the words you say
That make me feel so young
But I don´t know where this is going,
I´ve just been hoping
And I can see by your smile
That you´re glowing inside and out
Let´s not pretend like it´s not what it is,
When I´m just starting to realize
That I love you, ooh
And I wish that we were strangers,
Strange enough to go unnoticed from this crowd
And I wish that we were closer,
Close enough for me to hold you
When your lonely nights become too long to bear
But I don´t know where this is going,
I´ve just been hoping
And I can see by your smile
That you´re glowing inside and out
Let´s not pretend like it´s not what it is,
When I´m just starting to realize
That I love you, ooh
You hold your head up high,
Though it´s hard to, ooh
I can´t keep back,
I know I just want you, ooh
But I don´t know where this is going,
I´ve just been hoping
And I can see by your smile
That you´re glowing inside and out
Let´s not pretend like it´s not what it is,
When I´m just starting to realize
That I love you, ooh
I love you…
