Embarrassed (I Wish)

Is it bad that I still think about you?
Since that night
When only two words were exchanged
Between us?

I wish you were still there
When I turned around

I wish I was the girl that turns heads
Whenever she walked into a room

I wish I was confident enough
To say more than just (that) one word to you

I wish I could walk right up to you
And strike up a conversation
Ask you questions
Get to know you

I wish our mutual friend
Knew how I felt and would lend a helping hand

Despite all these wishes though
There's only one that I really want you to know
One in which I hope one day
We can make come true
And simply that wish is:

"I wish that you knew how I felt about you"

The way you looked at me
Made me feel as though I was worth looking at
And I hope to find someone one day
Who looks at me
Just the way you did
(Til then, I might just give up altogether..)

You looked my way
And I held your gaze
But I felt embarrassed after a little while
And that had me turning away

I wish I had kept looking...
