I Wish I Was Yours

Wish that I could be yours, yeah
I Wanna be yours
Ohh, I've never seen a love like you're givin
Whatever you're willin
He's gotta feel like a king
And everything you do is about em
You help keep em grounded
It looks like the real thing
You are someone special
That no one could or ever would come close to compare
Now I'm feelin guilty
Cuz the one who is with me is good
But I simply just...
I wish that I was yours (yours)
(repeat x's 4)
All Yours
All Yours
Yeah
I love the way you keep her beside ya
You're such a provider
She's gotta feel like a queen
And I can tell
She's your one and only
Your heart and your homie
It must be the real thing
You are someone special
That no one could or ever would come close to compare
Now I'm feelin guilty
Cuz the one who is with me is good
But I simply just...
I wish that I was yours (yours)
(repeat x's 4)
All Yours
All Yours
Yeah
I wish I had your hugs
I wish I had your kisses
I wish I had your touch
Just checkin off my wishlist
I wish I had your time
I wish I had your attention
And while we're makin wishes
Did I forget to mention
I wish that I was yours
Wish I was yours
I wish that I was yours
Only sometimes ....
I wish that I was yours
So i could give ... held close by ya
I wish that I was yours
All Yours
I wish that I was yours
I wish that I was yours
Ohh Baby
I wish that I was yours
Wish that I was yours
All yours
All yours
I Wish I Was Yours
Released by Tank, 'I Wish I Was Yours' stands as a defining track from the early 2000s emo revival, characterized by its raw vocal delivery and introspective lyrics. The song exemplifies the genre's signature blend of melodic pop structures with themes of vulnerability and romantic longing. Tank's distinctive voice and songwriting approach helped establish a blueprint for the movement, influencing a generation of artists who prioritized emotional authenticity over polished production. While often associated with the broader 'emo' sound, the track's specific arrangement and lyrical focus on personal desire set it apart within the genre's catalog. It remains a staple for fans of the era, representing a pivotal moment in the resurgence of 90s alternative rock aesthetics.
