Wish You Were Her

There's a girl sleeping in my bed

And I'm singing unwritten songs in my head

She provided bittersweet company

I confided how much you mean to me

And this time

It's gonna take a train to pull me through

Some brief distraction from your memory

Is all that I hoped that she might be

And as I let her warm her feet on me

Wish you were her

That I wanted you to be my wife

Is the worst kept secret of my life

Everyone knows, even my friend here

I've just whispered your name in her ear

And this time

It's gonna take a train to pull me through

Some brief distraction from your memory

Is all that I hoped that she might be

And as I ask her how she takes her tea

Wish you were her

Her I wish you were her
