The Wish

(album: Playing For Keeps - 1980)

Me, I'm a simple man
A man of simple means
I wish I had a girl like you
To help me with my dreams

'Cause, me, I'm just a simple man, now
Don't want much from life
But if I had a girl like you
You'd help me sleep at night, now
Ooh yeah

Wish I had a girl like you
So I'd know just what to do
If I had a girl like you
I'd know just what to do

I'd know just what to do

Baby, maybe, baby
You might understand, that you're just
You're driving me crazy now, so
Won't you take my hand?

'Cause every night I get on my hands and knees
And I beg the Lord above, now
To send me down a girl like you, now
I need someone to love

Wish I had a girl like you
So I'd know just what to do
If I had a girl like you
Honey, I'd, I'd know just what to do

I need a little magic in my life now

Wish I had a girl like you
So I'd know just what to do
If I had a girl like you
I'd know just what to do

I wish I had a girl like you
I'd know just what to do
Baby, if I, now, had a face just like you
Yeah, yeah, yeah
I said, yeah yeah yeah
Yeah yeah yeah
Wish I had a girl just like you
