[Verse 1]
Made a pact with myself, I was gonna do better
But of course every night I would sleep with your sweater
And I heard that she moved in
You finally let her get a taste of that romantic New England weather
[Pre-Chorus]
I'd like to be
Anybody else
I'd like to be
Anything but this unhappy
[Chorus]
I wish I was you
Moving on and falling so in love
With somebody new
Did it hit you?
Was it different?
I wanted to lose
Just a little bit of hope, my God
I wish I was you
Wish that I knew how to let go
[Verse 2]
What if I was the baggage that you couldn't carry?
What if one day I wake up to news that you're marriеd?
Am I wasting my time?
Maybe I nevеr even meant or made a dent in your life at all
[Pre-Chorus]
I'd like to be
Anybody else
I'd like to be
Anything but this unhappy
[Chorus]
I wish I was you
Moving on and falling so in love
With somebody new
Did it hit you?
Was it different?
I wanted to lose
Just a little bit of hope, my God
I wish I was you
Wish that I knew how to let go
[Post-Chorus]
(Wish I was your, wish I was your girlfriend)
(Wish I was your)
Wish that I knew how to let go
(Wish I was your, wish I was your girlfriend)
(Wish I was your)
Wish that I knew how to let go
[Bridge]
I wanna be you
You were always good at hiding how you felt
And I miss the way you loved me
I wish it was you
Just me and you
Wish it was
[Chorus]
I wish I was you
Moving on and falling so in love
With somebody new
Did it hit you?
Was it different?
I wanted to lose
Just a little bit of hope my God
I wish I was you
Wish that I knew how to let go
[Post-Chorus]
(Wish I was your, wish I was your girlfriend)
(Wish I was your)
Wish that I knew how to let go
(Wish I was your, wish I was your girlfriend)
(Wish I was your)
Wish that I knew how to let go
