I Wish

I wish that I were pretty
I wish that I were happy
I wish I could grow flowers six feet tall
I wish that all the day I could eat sugar buns and candy
And had a grand piano in the parlour down the hall

I wish that you were near me
But know it does not matter
I wish that I had on another's shoes
That I lived on the ocean on a windy beach that's sandy
A place that is so far away I'd not have heard the news

I wish that I could fly and
Remember all my dreams and
I wish I had a thousand diamond rings
I wish I did not know
That you're about to marry
The list of things I would not know includes so many things

I wish my heart were quiet
I wish I lived in Europe
I wish I spoke six languages in all
I wish I had more white bouquets than any bride could carry
And had seen the future in a crystal ball
