Song Lyrics

I wish he was my boyfriend
I wish he was my boyfriend
I'd love him to the very end
But instead he's just a friend
I wish he was my boyfriend

There's nothing worse than sitting all alone at home
And waiting waiting waiting waiting by the phone
I hope that he's at home
Waiting by his phone
I wonder if he knows
That I want him

I wish he was my boyfriend
I wish he was my boyfriend
I'd love him to the very end but instead he's just a friend
I wish he was my boyfriend

The other girl is not like me
She's prettier and skinnier
She has a college degree
I dropped out when I was seventeen
If only I could get her out of the picture
Then he would know how much I want him

One day I'll make him mine
And we'll be together all the time
We'll sit and watch the sun rise
And gaze into each others eyes
And know that he knows
I know that he knows
That he wants to be my boyfriend

Boyfriend
Boyfriend
I'd love him to the very end
But instead he's just a friend
I wish he was my boyfriend
I wish he was my boyfriend
I'd love him to the very end
But instead he's just a friend
I wish he was my boyfriend

Working Synopsis

Girl, 17, lusts after a boy. She lies on her bed and sings about how she wishes he was her boyfriend. She lies by a phone ('And waiting waiting waiting waiting by the phone'). She daydreams about scenarios of them together. She sees her and him, as if from a distance, as they flirt and hug on a green, with a warm fuzzy effect. She watches him in the school corridor, swooning after him. She daydreams about him standing there watching her smiling, as angels dance around him. It then goes back to real life, and he's standing not looking at her, with pretty girls hanging around him flirting ('The other girl is not like me she's prettier and skinnier'). She watches him at a diner, she sits in a booth and swirls her milkshake and watches him, while he sits and laughs with another girl. She sits and watches Grease (?), then gets up and looks at a picture of him, and at herself in the mirror. She goes to her wardrobe as if to change. She goes to prom, and walks into the room looking happy. Cut to her sitting on a bench looking sad and bored. The boy dances with another girl. They lean in to kiss and she storms out, end on her walking down the street into the sunset.
