Tim, wish you were born a girl, | |
So I could've been your boyfriend. | |
I know it's not possible now. | |
I just never met a girl I like half as much as you. | |
And we could lay around in bed, stay there all day, | |
Or at least until the afternoon | |
And I could make you spaghetti with tomato sauce | |
With just a touch of oregano and a parsley stem. | |
And then when you got sick, | |
I could take the day off work. | |
I could've made you chicken soup, | |
And we could watch soap operas | |
- oh, those TV dramas! | |
I could catch your cold | |
and you could take care of me. | |
If I could've met you at school, or met you at work, | |
It would have changed everything. | |
Those years of losing, confusion and insecurity, | |
They would have been shared, | |
they would have been easier. | |
Tim, wish you were born a girl, | |
Tim, wish you were born a girl, | |
So I could've been your fiancé. | |
I'm not saying you can't be all these things for me, | |
But it's just not the same because you're a man, | |
and so am I. |
