Wish I could be a lover
To someone other than myself
Wish I could be an angel
To live and breathe through someone else
Wish I could be an anchor
To someone floating in the sky
Someone to keep them centered
So they don't fly away too high
And I knowit's been a while
I know it seems that I'm okay
But it's just a lonely smile
Caught in snapshots along the way
I've had enough for today
Wish I could be a fire
To something other than the cold
Wish I could see what's higher
Without ever letting go
And I knowit's been a while
I know it seems that I'm okay
But it's just a lonely smile
Caught in snapshots along the way
I've had enough for today
Instrumental
Wish I could write a song
Filled with beautiful lies
But it'd be far too long
Lost in someone else's rhymes
So for now
This is all I am
This simple love is all I can give
So I'll place it in your hand
No need to thank me or forgive
All I ask
Is that you live
Just as you wish
