Cherish is the word I use to describe All the feeling that I have hiding here for you inside You don't know how many times I've wished that I had told you You don't know how many times I've wished that I could hold you You don't know how many times I've wished that I could Mold you into someone who could Cherish me as much as I cherish you Perish is the word that more than applies To the hope in my heart each time I realize That I am not gonna be the one to share your dreams That I am not gonna be the one to share your schemes That I am not gonna be the one to share what Seems to be the life that you could Cherish as much as I do yours Oh I'm beginning to think that man has never found The words that could make you want me That have the right amount of letters, just the right sound That could make you hear, make you see That you are drivin' me out of my mind Who's peekin' out from under a stairway Calling a name that's lighter than air Who's bending down to give me a rainbow Everyone knows it's Windy Who's tripping down the streets of the city Smilin' at everybody she sees Who's reachin' out to capture a moment Everyone knows it's Windy And Windy has stormy eyes That flash at the sound of lies And Windy has wings to fly Above the clouds (Above the clouds) Above the clouds (Above the clouds) Oh I could say I need you but then you'd realize That I want you just like a thousand other guys Who'd say they loved you With all the rest of their lies When all they wanted was to touch your face, your hands And gaze into your eyes Cherish is the word I use to describe Everyone knows it's Windy All the feeling that I have hiding here for you inside Everyone knows it's Windy And Windy has stormy eyes You don't know how many times I've wished that I had told you That flash at the sound of lies You don't know how many times I've wished that I could hold you And Windy has wings to fly Above the clouds You don't know how many times I've wished that I could Mold you into someone who could Above the clouds Cherish is the word
