I Wish

I wish we could keep

The promises we made in the hours without sleep

I wish we could stay

Together for forever and a day

I wish you hadn't hurt me

Had never caused me agony

I wish I could keep you here

By my side forever in all this fear

I wish that I could love you

But I don't know what to do

I wish I could give you my heart and soul

But neither of them are whole

I wish I didn't have to say this

But I'd do anything to feel your kiss

I wish I could have you back

But for hurting me you've got the knack

I wish we were still dreaming

But now we're waking

I wish I was what you need

But too many times I've made your heart bleed

I wish you didn't regret

Saying all those sweet things I can't forget

I wish we were still in love

But now it's the sun shining up above

I wish I didn't want to leave

But I still have to grieve

I wish you would stay

But everything ends one day
