i wish



i wish i
i wish i
i wish i
i wish i was the person you think of when you smile and laugh
i wish i was the person you hold while you sleep or cry
the person to whom you tell all your deepest secrets and fears
and to whom you dedicate all the songs you sing and write
i wish i was the person who makes you feel safe and sound
i wish i was that person
