How I wish to keep you near forever
How I wish to hide you under my skin
How I wish to revel in your sunlight
How I wish to treasure it all within
*
How I wish I could banish your sorrow
How I wish I could make you forget
How I wish I could become the one
How I wish to bar the sun to set
*
How I wish my heart was your harbor
How I wish you came along to stay
How I wish my arms were your anchor
How I wish and wish and wish and pray
*
How I wish to wash away the doubt
How I wish you could show me a sign
How I wish the tree of hope to sprout
How I wish you were endlessly mine
