I Wish You were Me

by Thomas K. Hunt

I wish you could be me if only for a day
You would then know what I'm trying to say
You'd finally see things my way
If you could be me for a day

You'd know just how I feel
You'd know I'm for real
You wouldn't know me any other way
If you could be me if only for a day

Go on and slide right under my skin
Yes really sink yourself in
You'd understand what I'm trying to say
If you were me for a day

Take a walk in my shoes
You've got nothing to lose
Walk down my path and wade in my weeds
Open your eyes and you'll clearly see
On that day you'll know what I mean
and why I wish you were me

You're always here in my mind occupying my time
Part of me is you, as you are mine
You're the air that I breathe and everything in between
I wish for the day you finally see it my way
I wish you could be me for a day

Look deep into my eyes
Find what's on the other side
It would be much easier if you were me
You'd see there's nothing to hide
Everything is opened wide
Everything is where it should be

I wish there'd come a day when you see it my way
Find the peace within our minds
Making history with our time
Love felt when the love was shown
True love that comes from the home
There's no other place to be
This you would know if you were me

I wish you were me
You would clearly see
You'd know how I feel
You'd know I'm for real
If only for a day
You'd finally see it my way
Oh, how I wish it could be
I wish you could be me
