I Wish It Was Mine

(Bill Anderson)



Somewhere a telephone is ringing right now

Someone's old sweetheart is on the line

She's calling to patch up an old love affair

Oh, I wish it was mine.



Somebody's writing a letter right now

And saying oh Lawd, I was blind

Somebody's darling longs to come home

Oh, I wish it was mine.



But you never write me and you never phone

There's somebody else on your mind

And somebody's heart is glad you don't love me

Oh, I wish it was mine.



--- Instrumental ---



You never write me and you never phone

There's somebody else on your mind

And somebody's heart is glad that you left me

Oh, I wish it was mine.



Oh, I wish it was mine...
