I Wish
Kasper Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

I wish I knew someone like you could love me
I wish I knew you place no one above me
Did I mistake this for a real romance?
I wish I knew, but only you can answer.

If you don't care, why let me hop[e and pray so
Don't lead me on, if I'm a fool just say so,
Should I keep dreaming on, or just forget you?

What shall I do, I wish I knew

Overall Meaning

In "I Wish" by Kasper, the singer expresses their longing and uncertainty about a potential love interest. They start by stating that they wish they knew someone like the person they are addressing could love them, expressing their insecurity and uncertainty about being deserving of love. This is followed by a desire for reassurance from this person that they are truly cherished and hold a significant place in their life. The singer then starts questioning if they have misunderstood the relationship and if it was just a fleeting romance or if there is something deeper that they are unaware of. In the last stanza, the singer challenges the person to be honest with them and let them know if they are leading them on and if the hope they have is false. The singer wonders if they should move on or persist with their dreams, but ultimately, they only wish they knew the truth.

This song is a relatable and emotional portrayal of the vulnerability and confusion that can come with unrequited love. The lyrics are introspective and self-reflective, highlighting the doubts and anxiety that can arise when someone is uncertain about the reciprocation of their feelings. The melody is mellow and melancholic, which perfectly complements the sombre lyrics and creates a reflective atmosphere.

I wish I knew you place no one above me
I desire to know if I hold a special place in your heart, where nobody else is more important to you.

Did I mistake this for a real romance?

I wish I knew, but only you can answer.
Even though I am in a state of doubt, I recognize the fact that only you have the answer to my questions.

If you don't care, why let me hope and pray so
If you don't have any feelings for me, why do you give me false hope and let me pray for something that may never happen.

Don't lead me on, if I'm a fool just say so
Please do not give me false expectations or lead me into thinking that there is more to our relationship if there isn't, as I would rather know the truth than continue being foolish.

Should I keep dreaming on, or just forget you?
I am conflicted between trying to keep my dream alive of being with you or letting go of you entirely, and I do not know which path to take.

What shall I do, I wish I knew
I am lost in my feelings for you and I do not know what steps to take, and I long for clarity and guidance.
