Lyrics Verified by Editorial Team
Wish I didn't feel so helpless
Wish I didn't act so selfish
Wish I didn't wring my hands night and day
My hair was a little bit smoother
My jeans fit a little bit looser
And I always knew the right things to say
And I wish I wouldn't hide what's been going inside
And I wish you wouldn't get scared and run away
Wish I was doin' better with all the things that matter
I guess I got some learnin' to do
Wish everyone had someone who'll hold'em and who'll love'em
The way I'm always gonna love you
I wish wishes came true
I wish there was a cure for cancer
Wish somebody had an answer
And all God's children never got hurt
I wish Eve never broke that apple
Young men never went to battle
And I didn't get so mad at the world
I wish I was more like Jesus and could pickup all the pieces
And make a better life for my baby girl
Oh
Wish I was doin' better with all the things that matter
I guess I got some learnin' to do
Wish everyone had someone who'll hold'em and who'll love'em
The way I'm always gonna love you
I wish wishes came true
Wishes came true
For everything I'm wishin' I know someone's up there listenin'
So I'll say my prayers when I go to bed
Haaaaaa haaaaaaa haaaaaa
Oh I'll pray my wishes come true
Haaaaaa haaaaaaa haaaaaa
Ohhhhhh
Wish I was doin' better with all the things that matter
Guess I got some learnin' to do
Oh wish everyone had someone who'll hold'em and who'll love'em
The way I'm always gonna love you
I wish wishes came true
Wishes came true
I know wishes come true
I wish (I wish)
I wish (I wish)
