If your eyes were half as bright They still would light my way If your heart were twice as true Then you'd be mine today That’s why I often wish That you were half as lovely, twice as true I am only one of those Who thinks of you and sighs Just another one who knows Your laughter and your lies I wish that you were someone Who was half as lovely, twice as true I love you, I love you, too much it seems For any fool can see With your heart so crowded with other dreams How can you dream of me? Though I pray the gods above Will make you care somehow Still I know the odds of love Are all against me now But I might stand a chance If you were half as lovely, twice as true Maybe, if your loveliness were not so heavenly Maybe then I might possess the only one for me I wish that you were someone Who was half as lovely, twice as true
