The Wish

If I could only have one wish,

One wish that would come true;

Then there would be no thought at all,

I'd wish to be with you.

While some may wish for wealth or fame,

Or hope to be a king;

Without you standing by my side,

It wouldn't mean a thing.

For wealth could never buy your love,

And fame is often fleeting;

And what good is it to be a king,

If it's not you I'm greeting?

So if I ever get my wish,

And have that choice to make;

I'll leave the rest to someone else,

It's you that I will take.
