I realize there's somethin' in you missin' in me
Now we are tryin' to fight the fight more elegantly
Now you are bending beautifully toward the bright light
So please let me take you through this glorious night

So I don't measure up, I was sober and furious
Playin' out my lie
So hand me a rope, will I climb, will I choke
Till I make the stars align?

I wish I was taller
I wish I was wiser
So can I stand next to you?
So can I stand next to you?
So can I stand next to you?
So can I stand next to you?

They say, we don't belong in a traditional sense
But we, we know we're as solid as a sky-high fence

To be locked in the arms of a glorious life
With your body as my shrine
I'll be happy to drown when we're both lying down
And commune with the divine

I wish I was taller
I wish I was wiser
I wish I was taller
I wish I was wiser

So can I stand next to you?
So can I stand next to you?
So can I stand next to you?
I just wanted to be next to you

Ooh, I just wanted to be next to you
Can I stand, so can I stand?

I just wanted to be next to you, oh
I just wanted to be next to you
I just wanted to be next to you
