lyrics

Indubitably
I wish I could see what you saw in me
I wish I could be
Somebody more like the memory
That you have of me

I wish I knew how to keep your love
I wish I knew what you're dreaming of
I wish I could rise above
Those things I said today
I'd wish them away
If I could only keep your love

I wish I knew
What in the world's going on with you
But I haven't a clue
Why you would do those things you do
And say we're through

I wish I knew how to keep your love
I wish I knew what you're dreaming of
I wish I could rise above
Those things I said today
I'd wish them away
If I could only keep your love

If I could keep your love
I'd lock it away
Hold it somewhere special
In case of another lonely day, well
Why keep hanging on
If you're just moving on again
And taking all your love

I'd like to see
I wish I could see what you saw in me
I wish I could be
Somebody more like the memory
That you have of me

I wish I knew how to keep your love
I wish I knew what you're dreaming of
I wish I could rise above
Those things I said today
I'd wish them away
If I could only keep your love

If I could keep your love
I'd lock it away
Hold it warm and dry
In case of another rainy day, well
Why keep hanging on
If you're just moving on again
And taking all your love
