Wish You Were Gay

(album: Sideline Star - 2019)

Picture this, you and me in the morning
Kissing over the coffee you're pouring
It could be like that every day
Hate it that I wish you were

Hoping that I'm a better replacement
For the guys that you're always out chasing
Or should I accept things I can't change?
Hate it that I wish you were

I wish you were gay so you could just hold me
Call me your babe instead of your homie
Don't know what to say
But I wish you were gay

I wish you were gay so it would be easy
For me to say that I'm catching feelings
And I know you're straight
But I wish you were gay

Now I see you get off of the subway
Haven't seen you in months but it's okay
I'd forgotten but I feel the same
Hate that I still wish you were

You walk up and I'm dreading the small talk
With your boyfriend, he's chatting my ear off
So I lie and I say I can't stay
Hate it I still wish you were

I wish you were gay so you could just hold me
Call me your babe instead of your homie
Don't know what to say
But I wish you were gay

I wish you were gay so it would be easy
For me to say that I'm catching feelings
And I know you're straight
But I wish you were gay

We'd be so good
Give me one look
I know you don't mean it when you come to flirt
The dreams that I'm having are just getting worse

I wish you were gay so you could just hold me
Call me your babe instead of your homie
Don't know what to say
But I wish you were gay

I wish you were gay so it would be easy
For me to say that I'm catching feelings
And I know you're straight
But I wish you were gay

I won't trade four roses for your heart
I won't wait forever in the dark
