A Wish for Something More Lyrics
Oh the sun is shining far too bright
For it to still be night
Oh the air feels so cold, so cold and old
How can it be light?
Let’s take a walk outside
See the world through teach others eyes
I wish I was your only one
I think you’re beautiful but your hair is a mess
And your shoes are untied but that’s what I love best
And I, I wish I was the one, your one and only sun and you looked at me that way
I wish for long lingering glances
Fairy tale romances every single day
And you look at me and say I’m your best friend every day
But I wish for something, wish for something more
Oh I love you like a friend, but lets not pretend how I wish for something, wish for something more
Now the grass is so green, but I can’t see anything past your eyes
I’m fixated on your smile; your cherry lips make life worth while
I’m thinking these things while I’m trying to say
This lie gets in my way, every single day
And I, I wish I was the one, your one and only sun and you looked at me that way
I wish for long lingering glances
Fairy tale romances every single day
And you look at me and say I’m your best friend every day
But I wish for something, wish for something more
Oh I love you like a friend, but lets not pretend how I wish for something, wish for something more
Now this sun is fading, now the rain is coming down
And I’m looking at your face and you’re looking at the ground
I see diamonds in your dreams, I see pearls around your neck,
I see everything that’s beautiful, oh everything that’s beautiful
I wish I was the one, your one and only sun and you looked at me that way
I wish for long lingering glances
Fairy tale romances every single day
And you look at me and say I’m your best friend every day
But I wish for something, wish for something more
Oh I love you like a friend, but lets not pretend how I wish for something, wish for something more
For it to still be night
Oh the air feels so cold, so cold and old
How can it be light?
See the world through teach others eyes
I wish I was your only one
And your shoes are untied but that’s what I love best
I wish for long lingering glances
Fairy tale romances every single day
And you look at me and say I’m your best friend every day
But I wish for something, wish for something more
Oh I love you like a friend, but lets not pretend how I wish for something, wish for something more
I’m fixated on your smile; your cherry lips make life worth while
I’m thinking these things while I’m trying to say
This lie gets in my way, every single day
I wish for long lingering glances
Fairy tale romances every single day
And you look at me and say I’m your best friend every day
But I wish for something, wish for something more
Oh I love you like a friend, but lets not pretend how I wish for something, wish for something more
And I’m looking at your face and you’re looking at the ground
I see diamonds in your dreams, I see pearls around your neck,
I see everything that’s beautiful, oh everything that’s beautiful
I wish for long lingering glances
Fairy tale romances every single day
And you look at me and say I’m your best friend every day
But I wish for something, wish for something more
Oh I love you like a friend, but lets not pretend how I wish for something, wish for something more

i olove this song. i always think of my best friend who i love to bits and wish i could have as my one and only. she only wants friendship and im happy with that but at the back of my mind i wish i could have more. how can a girl of only 19 write such a powerful and gorgeous song. i love amy to bits
totally agree with the spacegod!! about falling for someone you are really close to but them not reciprocating although she possibly hasn't mentioned the fact she wants more from him?
I agree, this is a song about being in love with someone who you know can only love you as a friend. I am living through something similar myself at the minute and the lyrics are sooo true. I particularly like the line 'this lie gets in the way every single day'- you have to play a part which is not true to your heart.. Amy rocks!
Love this song, love the album and love Amy. She's great.
This song means a hell of a lot to me. It's such a personal song, I can relate in a few ways. I think its so powerful because alot of people can experience this at some point. My best friend means the world to me and we are that close and talk about absolutly everything, shes my soul mate and if only I could meet someone that I connect with as much as that.

I think this part of the song is the best, they are beautiful words and something we all wish and dream about.
The correct lyrics are " I wish I was the one, you lonely lonely son.." I looked it up at her official site. These lyrics are so obvious, they're so right, fascinatingly moving.
