I Wish

(album: Smooth Sailin' - 1987)

Ohhh, ooooh, ooooh, baby, ooooh
When you're far away, my body longs for you
When you shed a tear, my heart bleeds for you, girl
When you're feeling down, the sun just doesn't shine
When you're not around, oh, I'm sad, baby
Oh, baby, I sure do miss your love
I want you here, here with me, yeah

I wish that I could hold you
Oh, I wish, baby, I wish
I wish that I could touch you, oh you know, you know that I wish, baby
I wish that I could make you feel alright, alright, alright

When I'm all alone, I think only of you, baby
I lay awake at night burning with desire
When I close my eyes, I always see your face
When I'm wide-awake, I fantasize
And, ooh, baby, I'm longing for your touch
I really miss your kisses, I need you, ooh, so much

I wish that I, I wish, I wish, I wish, baby
Wish that I could
I wish that I, ah, hey, hey, hey, hey, could touch you
I wish that I, ah, you know, I wish, I could make you feel make you feel,
Alright, alright
I wish that I, I wish baby, could hold you, ah you know, you know,
you know I wish baby, could touch you

Oh, I wish, baby, could make you feel, make you feel alright,
oh, alright, alright

I miss your warm embrace, I miss your smiling face
I miss your tender kiss, there's nothing I miss more than this
I miss those nights together
Oh, they were so right whenever
I miss the way you squeeze me
You bring me to my knees, baby

I wish that I
I'd do anything
Could hold you
To hold you in my arms once again, I wish that I
And ooh, ooooh, ooooh, could touch you
And I, I, I, I wish that I could make you feel, make you feel, you feel, alright, alright
I wish that I
And I wish, I wish, baby, baby
I wish that I
I pray and wish that I could touch you, ooooh
I wish that I could make you feel, I want to make you feel, alright, alright
I wish that I
