Emotional Paradox

If “when you wish upon a star,
Makes no difference who you are,”
Then why can’t my greatest wish come true,
Why can’t I just be with you?

When we pass in the halls you glance my way
We both smile, then you walk away
When we talk in class, we have so much fun
Then you leave my side when class is done

When we hang out at your house, I make you laugh
Then our homework’s done, and our time together is cut in half
When we walk on the beach, you hold my hand
But as soon as the sun’s down, you rush off the sand

If, as you say, you love my company
Why can’t you stay and be with me?
It does make a difference who I am
I’m a girl who can’t seem to get her man
