I Wish

 I wish...
I were somebody else
Somebody new with hope in their eyes
Somebody old whose life gone by

I wish..
I were you
With arms outstretched you capture the breeze
With thoughts aloft you reach out for me

I wish..
I could make you hear
The thoughts I can't express
The wishes my heart has left
I wish..
I could see
Blind faith comes to those who need
Cynicism to those who heed

I wish..
You were me
Could feel how I feel
Could know when I hurt


If only you knew me.
