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
