Lyrics
?I WISH?
Writer: Cheryl Hajjar
How do you look in my eyes?
And say that you love me
When you don?t know just who I am
Are you hearing me?, I know you can?t see
Afraid to tell you how I feel
I don?t wanna reveal
For fear that you will laugh at me
And my emptiness will carry on
And I?ll never learn , how to be strong
I WISH, that you could dream like me
And you would see
The colors of our lives can be more than just black and white
Why can?t you love me just the way
The way I am
I WISH you could see that your hurting me
Oh why can?t you please stop hurting me?
Its hard living with the thought
That your ashamed of me
I?m sorry that I disappoint your every dream
That you had for me
I scream sometimes inside my head
I wish that I were dead
So I wouldn?t feel like I have failed
All my victories, are like parodies
What?s sacred to me is your comic relief
I WISH, that you could dream like me
And you would see
The colors of our lives can be more than just black and white
Why can?t you love me just the way
The way I am
I WISH you could see that your hurting me
Oh why can?t you please stop hurting me?
You stare into the distance as if you don?t see this woman that I?ve become
I?d hardly call this love
Need to feel inside, you appreciate me
And in my heart that you believe
CHORUS
