She’ll say, "I wish I knew you
Dancing like there’s no one there
It’s so rock and roll to be alone
Very different to me
And they’ll meet one day far away
Free so he can see
Every single day
Now she wouldn’t dare
I wish I met you when time was still on my side"
And there’s a happy ending
And say, "I wish I was something more"
He’s got nowhere to go
He'll say, "I wish I knew you
And say, "I wish I was something more"
Is acting like she used to be
Every single day
But now she’s lost her way
Talking on his phone again
To someone who tells him that his balance is low
And they’ll meet one day far away
And they’ll meet one day far away
Before she ever seemed to care
Rock chick of the century
But I’ve seen that all before
He’s on his own again
Always something on her mind
And they’ll meet one day far away
I wish I loved you before I was his bride"
And say, "I wish I knew you, I wish I knew you before"
And they’ll meet one day far away
Too many more broken hearts
She’s never seen a shade of gray
And say, "I wish I knew you, I wish I knew you before"
And so they must depart
And say, "I wish I was something more"
He’s living proof of someone
And where does she go from here?
But now he wants to be free
Mrs. Black and White
Mr. Multicultural
Sees all that one could see
And they’ll meet one day far away
In TV, books and film and more
