Just my semi-political RANT about everything that bothers me in general-I could go on all day but.........
I Wish
I wish that the sun would shine down
With the purest of light
For everyone around.
I wish that all the people could see
That love and acceptance
Is the way it should be
I wish for peace throughout this world
To end all the hate
And the violence unfurled.
I wish that there were no more wars
Or political reasons
To settle a score.
CHORUS: I wish I was a thousand miles away
Laying on a beach
On a sunny day
I wish that I could just duck and run
Escape all the madness
Crawling under the sun.
I wish that I could travel back in time
Correct the mistakes
Of all humankind.
I wish I could fly off into outer space
And start a new life
In a different place.
I wish that there was no more greed
No way to profit and
No way to deceive.
I wish that someone could tell me
Why things cost so much here
In the land of the free?
I wish we could find out the real truth
Instead of hearing
Things are going so smooth.
I wish there was an answer to it all
Where do we go
When we finally fall?
I wish I was a thousand miles away
Laying on a beach
On a sunny day
I wish that I could just duck and run
Escape all the madness
Crawling under the sun.
I wish that I could travel back in time
Correct the mistakes
Of all humankind.
I wish I could fly off into outer space
And start a new life
In a different place.
