WISHING
V1/
THERE'S NOTHING SPECIAL ON MY MIND
JUST THOUGHT I'D WRITE AND SAY HELLO
AND LET YOU KNOW YOU'RE THOUGHT ABOUT MORE OFTEN THAN YOU KNOW
FOR YOU ARE BEING THOUGHT OF, IN A VERY SPECIAL WAY
MORE DEEPLY AND SINCERELY THAN THESE FEW WORDS CAN SAY.
CH1/
I'M WISHING AT THIS MOMENT, THAT I COULD BUT REPLAY,
A PART OF ALL THE GLADNESS, YOU'VE STREW ALONG MY WAY,
AND IF I COULD HAVE ONE WISH THIS YEAR, THE ONLY WISH WOULD BE,
TO BE THE SORT OF FRIEND THAT YOU HAVE BEEN TO ME.
V2/
IF I COULD JUST BE WITH YOU, JUST LIKE WE WERE BEFORE,
I'D TELL YOU THAT I LOVE YOU; MY HEART WOULD BE THE DOOR.
THAT'S OPEN WIDE TO TELL YOU, IT'S YOU THAT I ADORE,
BUT SINCE WE ARE SO FAR APART, ALL THAT I CAN SAY.
CH2/
IM WISHING AT THIS MOMENT, THAT YOU WERE IN MY ARMS.
TO FEEL YOUR BODY NEAR ME, AND KEEP YOU FROM ALL HARM.
BUT THOUGH WE'RE NOT TOGETHER I CAN SEE YOU IN MY DREAMS,
YOU'RE STILL SO VERY CLOSE TO ME,
WELL THAT'S THE WAY IT SEEMS
