I Wish
D.kray Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
My love for you
Should have ended long ago
I wish I didn't need your kiss
Why must your kiss
Torture me as long as this
With some new tender friend
Smiling by now
With my heart on the mend
But when I try
Something in my heart says no
You're still there
I wish I didn't love you so
(repeat *)
I wish I didn't love you so
