Nanci Griffith - If Wishes Were Changes lyrics

(Nanci Griffith - James Hooker) I wish that you loved me The way that I love you I wish I had Angels Who sang in my dreams If wishes were changes We'd all live in roses And there wouldn't be children Who cried in their sleep He wishes I loved him The way that I love you If wishes were changes I'd dry all his tears If wishes were changes I'd make him my anchor He'd be my anchor He'd be my Angel Who sang through the years Chorus So long to the blue days of wishing If wishes were changes There'd be no goodbyes So long to the heart I have given 'cause wishing won't bring back The love in your eyes I wish that I had your Wings of desire I wish I had seen you As I see you now I wouldn't feel sorrow You've left here inside me But, wishing won't change Right from wrong for you now Chorus Repeat First Verse
