Wish You Loved You

Why do you beat yourself up when you’re feeling low?
When in the eyes of many, you’re a king with a crown to show
Looking for something to lift you up, but nothing’s around
It’s time for you to get back up from the ground

And I’ll lend you a hand 'cause I’ve been in that place
And I understand that feeling when you don’t want to embrace
But I won’t groove with anyone else 'cause it wouldn’t be right
I’ll wait here patiently until you’re ready to take flight
All those things you despise about yourself, I can’t agree
Wish you could love yourself like you love me
Wish you could love yourself like you love me

You don’t realize how your smile lights up the whole damn room
It seems like a distant memory 'cause you’ve been in gloom
When I compliment you, you brush it off as untrue
But there’s no one else like you, that’s my honest view

And I’ll lend you a hand 'cause I’ve been in that place
And I understand that feeling when you don’t want to embrace
But I won’t groove with anyone else 'cause it wouldn’t be right
I’ll wait here patiently until you’re ready to take flight
All those things you despise about yourself, I can’t agree
Wish you could love yourself like you love me
Wish you could love yourself like you love me
