Wish you were gay (but actually GAY) Lyrics

[Verse 1: Keara Graves]
Sipping coffee at my spot
A normal day, or so I thought
Writing poetry for girls I never got
And you walked right through that door
My pants so dropped onto the floor
But it was too good to be true
I've been here before

{Chorus: Keara Graves]
Saw you standing there in that cafe
But all you did was look the other way
Wish I found the words I really wanted to say (Mhm)
I just kinda wish you were gay

[Verse 2: Marina Lin]
Every day I see you there
And I think we'd make a perfect pair
But you're busy doing work
You probably don't care

I make my way across the room
Smelling the scent of your perfume
I could stare at your lips all day
And all aftеrnoon
[Chorus: Marina Lin]
Saw you sitting there in that cafe
But all you did was look thе other way (Other way)
Wish I found the words I really wanted to say (Mhm)
I just kinda wish you were gay

{Bridge: Keara Graves, Marina Lin & Both]
To spare my pride
To give your lack of interest an explanation
That I'm not your type (I'm not your type)
Maybe I'm not your preferred sexual orientation

I'm so selfish (You're so selfish)
But you make me feel helpless
And I can't stand another day
Stand another day

[Interlude: busy cafe background noises]

{Chorus: Marina Lin, Keara Graves & Both]
Saw you sitting there in that cafe
But all you did was look the other way
Wish I found the words I really wanted to say
I just kinda wish you were gay

[Outro: Both, spoken]
Oh, I am gay
I'm gay too
