John T. Wurzer - I Wish That I Could Love You

I wish that I could love you but I don't even know your name
I wish that I could kiss you but you're playing another game
I wish that I could feel you in my arms tonight
I wish that I could hold you when you're not uptight
I wish that you could see that both of us have always felt the same
I wish that I could love you but I don't even know your name

I wish that I could touch you but you seem so far away
I wish that I could reach you but my arms are short today
If you examine all the things that came and went
You'll find that our love was just an accident
And everything we spent went from red to amber gray
Well I wish that I could love you but I don't even know your name

I wish that I could hurt you but I'm tired of feeling ill
I'm tired of feeling angry and I fear I love you still
You're always feeding me the pieces of the things we shared
And telling me you shot me down because you cared
You had to let me go because you didn't want to climb up hill
I wish that I could love you but I don't even know your name

Well I wish that I could free you but I don't even have a dime
There's a bounty on your head and you've committed some evil crime
I wish that I could buy you but I'm short on cash
You're no longer on the market but you're bound to crash
And if I lived my life for money I'd only be wasting my time
Oh I wish that I could love you but I don't even know your name

I wish that I could venture into sleepwalks that you take
In your shiny robes of satin beneath the stars out by the lake
But somewhere in your psyche there's a bank vault door
Denying me quick access to your tender core
You look like an angel of God but you act like a snake
Lucifer
I wish that I could love you but I don't even know your name

I wish that we were sitting on a rooftop drinking wine
Instead of wishing I was yours and wishing you were mine
Well it's obvious to almost everyone I meet
That you and I were meant to touch each other's feet
An army of indifference and we're never gonna cross that line
Oh I wish that I could love you but I don't even know your name

I wish that I had met you when my eyes were cold as steel
For years I had the power to resist anything I would feel
You caught me at a time when I was weak with doubt
And I didn't have the sustenance to keep you out
You were holding all the cards and I was praying that you would deal
Oh I wish that I could love you but I don't even know your name
Well I wish that I could love you but I don't even know your name
