Half as Lovely [Twice as True] lyrics

If your eyes were half as bright

They still would light my way

If your heart were twice as true

Then you'd be mine today

That’s why I often wish

That you were half as lovely, twice as true

I am only one of those

Who thinks of you and sighs

Just another one who knows

Your laughter and your lies

I wish that you were someone

Who was half as lovely, twice as true

I love you, I love you, too much it seems

For any fool can see

With your heart so crowded with other dreams

How can you dream of me?

Though I pray the gods above

Will make you care somehow

Still I know the odds of love

Are all against me now

But I might stand a chance

If you were half as lovely, twice as true

Maybe, if your loveliness were not so heavenly

Maybe then I might possess the only one for me

I wish that you were someone

Who was half as lovely, twice as true
