"I Wish" Lyrics

I wish I were younger
and I wish that I were stronger
Oh Lord, I wish,
I wish that I could understand the world,
that I could find a better way
(a whole better way,)
I wish I were taller
and even that my eyes were blue
Oh Lord, I wish,

But most of all, above it,
I wish that you were mine
So we wouldn't have to be apart

I wish I were richer
and I wish that I could fly
Oh Lord, I wish,
I wish all my problems vanished
and all left was peace of mind
Oh Lord, I wish,

But most of all, above it,
I wish that you were mine
So we wouldn't have to be apart
Most of all, beyond it,
I wish that you were mine
So we'd never, ever say goodbye,

I hope this feeling will die soon
'Cause I can't stand
watching the world from where I am,
spending my life in love with you,
