Older
Birdy

I wish that I was older,

Old enough to be yours.

And I wish that I was wiser,

Wise enough to be strong minded,

To keep up with the words you say,

That make me feel so young.

But I don't know where this is going,

I've just been hoping.

And I can see by your smile that you're glowing,

Inside out.

Let's not pretend like it's not what it is,

When I'm just starting to realise

That I love you.

And I wish that we were strangers,

Strange enough to go unnoticed,

From this crowd.

And I wish that we were closer,

Close enough for me to hold you,

When you're lonely nights become too long to bare.

But I don't know where this is going,

I've just been hoping.

And I can see by your smile that you're glowing,

Inside out.

Let's not pretend like it's not what it is,

When I'm just starting to realise

That I love you.

You hold your head up high,

Though it's hard to

I can't keep back I know,

I just want you.

But I don't know where this is going,

I've just been hoping.

And I can see by your smile that you're glowing,

Inside out.

Let's not pretend like it's not what it is,

When I'm just starting to realise

That I love you.

I love you.
