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 of love 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 

I love you too much it seems 
With your heart so crowded with other dreams 
How can you dream of me? 

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
