I Wish for You the World - Alistair Griffin

I wish for you that perfect moment

when all the world is in your grasp.

I wish for you a sky that’s golden,

the things that I could never have.

I wish for you the faith to guide you

through all these good times and the bad.

I wish that I was there beside you

to dry your tears or make you laugh.

I wish that I could be there for the ride.

I hope some day you’ll think of me and smile.

I wish I’d had the guts to pull my feelings into words.

I wish for you the world.

I wish you glory, fame and fortune,

I wish you well with all it brings.

Wish I could go back to the start and

appreciate the little things.

I wish that life had turned out like I planned.

I wish that I could be a better man,

and even though I’ll never get to show you what I’m worth,

I wish for you the world.

Oh, I wish for you the world.

I wish for you the world.

I wish for you to know the secrets

of this old life and in the next.

I wish in spite of all that beat us,

I hope you know I did my best.

I hope to god, you’ll hold me in your heart.

I hope you know I loved you from the start.

Each passing day, I hope maybe that that I will get my turn.

And I wish for the world.

Oh, I wish for you the world.

I wish for you the world.

I wish for you the world.
