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
