I Wish lyrics

Underneath the silent skies

All the stars are out of sight

On the empty street

My sorrow and me

Those trees have grown much taller

While I was finding my way

That playground seems smaller

Than back in the day

I knew the world I'm from

The future was still to come

I'm coming home

Feeling unknown

I wish you could see me now (You could see me now)

I think you would be proud (You would be proud)

You said one day I would understand

But I'm still waiting for Peter Pan

I wish you could see me now (You could see me now)

I think you would be proud (You would be proud)

You said one day I would understand

But I just want you to hold my hand

They say I'm a lot like you

Wish you were here too

You didn't see me growing old

Didn't see me getting strong

It's time for words from a sermon

Time to say the last goodbyes

Time for coffee and bourbon

I just want our last goodnights

I whisper to the ground

"Thought you would always be around"

Wish you were not alone

In the great unknown

I wish you could see me now (You could see me now)

I think you would be proud (You would be proud)

You said one day I would understand

But I'm still waiting for Peter Pan

I wish you could see me now (You could see me now)

I think you would be proud (You would be proud)

You said one day I would understand

But I just want you to hold my hand

Hold my hand
