I wish I could make you fall in love with me
You do not know,
how much it would mean.
Each day that passes,
every minute, every hour.
Another moment lost
Another day that I can't make it happen.
I wish that you knew how much you meant to me.
And yet I know,
I can't tell you.
I'm locked in a box.
I yell,
I plead,
but you can not hear me.
Each day that passes,
every minute, every hour.
Another moment lost
Another day that I can't make you hear me
I wish that I could make you appreciate me.
Your face and your smile,
they belong to others
for the rest of the world to love
but not meant for me.
Each day that passes,
every minute, every hour.
Another moment lost
Another day that your humor
isn't for me.
I wish and I pray
that I could be part of your adventures,
I'd join your travels, and share your races.
But I'm not invited.
My help is unneeded.
Every day that passes
every minute, every hour.
Another moment lost
Another day that I can not join you.
I wished and I prayed
that you would notice me,
share in your knowledge
discuss all your readings
and pick my brain.
But I'm just a dot, a plot on a graph.
I'm nothing, I'm no one, that you really think of.
Every day that passes
every minute, every hour.
Another moment lost,
Another day that I'm not important
or of any significance to you.
I prayed to God, that we could be wed.
I wanted your children to be my children,
I wished to share my life with you,
follow your anywhere,
do anything with you,
and do all that you ask of me.
But you do not love me.
You may love another.
I failed to make you fall in love with me.
Each day that passes
every minute, every hour.
Another moment lost,
Another day that I couldn't make you
fall in love with me.
Wishing and praying is most helpful when what you're wishing and praying for is something you yourself can still help to bring about.
