I Wish I Knew Lyrics

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 hope 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

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 hope 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

I wish I knew
Someone like you could love me

I wish I knew
What shall I do?
I wish I knew
Someone like you could love me

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
