Wish

I wish that I was able to fly
Like a bird up in the blue
I'd said with skill to your windowsill
And wait patiently for you

I'd show you around the sleepy old town
And be back before anyone stirred
Then I'd sing soft and low all the song that you know
Sweeter than you ever heard

Cause me and you should be like old shoes
Never more than a step apart
Above our chins we'd wear broken-in grins
Cultivated by happy hearts

And oh! When we dance all the joy and romance
Would still wow the onlooking eyes
'Cause though we're old leather
We're much better together
Why should they be so surprised?

I wish that I was able to fly
I wish that I was able to fly
