Lyrics Heather Headley

Heather Headley

I Wish

I'd give you the moon

But you'd never the warmth of the sunshine

I'd give you the world

But exactly what would that do?

I'd promise you wings to fly

But how would you ever learn to run?

So I wish you all you need to be than I could be

This is what I wish for you

I wish you rainy days

So you can know the beauty of a clear blue sky

I wish you falling leaves

So you understand that seasons change

And if I gave you the mountains would you learn to climb?

I pray you'll always see the forest through the trees

This is what I wish for you

This is what I wish for you

If I could I'd say the word

And chase your fears away

And I'd stay right by your side

And point the way that you should take

But this is your life

This is your story

And when all is done and said

Say you lived with no regret

I wish you ocean breeze

And rivers that bring you everything you need

I wish the air you breathe

Is all that you'll ever need

And I wish you nights of love

And days of joy and shoulders when you cry

And just enough hellos to get you through goodbye

This is what I wish for you

I pray one day you'll have a home

With arms that open wide

And you'll have someone who loves you

Always by your side

And when you lose your will to try

I wish you wings to fly, I wish you wings to fly

I wish you everything you need

This is what I wish for you, this is what I wish for you
