Wishes

(album: The Big Fantasize - 2020)

Some may wish for city streets
Jewels or silken gown
And some may crave unbounded wealth
Fame or beauty's crown
And some may long for sunny paths
That lure the pleasures bent
Simpler things by far than these
Would keep my soul content

These are the things that I'll wish for
These are the things I'll wish for
These are the things that I'll wish for
You and me

Give me god's green countryside
With blue skies overhead
A tiny shack white curtained
On my sill a flower red
A laughing baby playing
Inside on the floor
A tiny flower garden growing
Outside my open door

And these are the things that I'll wish for
These are the things I'll wish for
These are the things that I'll wish for
You and me

A table set for supper time
Fresh fruit and honeycomb
And a warm breeze that's whispering
That your baby's coming home

Simple things with Love and Faith
Far from worldly strife
Grant me these before I die
And I'll ask no more of Life
Grant me these before I die
And I'll ask no more of Life

And these are the things that I'll wish for
These are the things I'll wish for
These are the things that I'll wish for
You and me
These are the things that I'll wish for
These are the things I'll wish for
These are the things that I'll wish for
For you and me
