I Could Wish

I could wish for the stars and call to the breeze
Or hope that the moon is made of cream cheese
I could dream the world lived together in peace
And wish so hard that wars would forever cease
I could pray that love would sweep through me
And that loves smiling face I will soon see
These wishes and impossible dreams are as true
As the chance that you will say again I love you

I could ask the heavens to move out of the way
Or tell the sun she mustn't rise up or set today
I could choose a star and keep it within my heart
Or command the ocean from the sands to be apart
I could plead with an angel to give me her song
And wish for truths touch to make me feel strong
These hopes and yearning desires will come true
After the world dies or that you say I love you

I could beg the hands of time to sweep on back
Or plead with the wind to alter her usual tack
I could ask the grass not to sprout up and grow
Or tell the moon not to reflect her silver glow
I could ask for the secrets the mountains hold
Or beg ice and snow not to make my heart go cold
These thoughts and wants will all be my reality
Immediately after you show me your hearts mystery

Marsha


Take back the hope you gave,- I claim
Only a memory of the same
