The Wish
|
|
|
|
Happy as jingle bells
and bright as shining stars
Christmas carols sung aloud
from pink punch buggy cars
The snow has fallen more than once
on cold, calm winter nights
I snuggle in my bunk bed
as I'm tucked in nice and tight
and if I had just one wish
to put beneath my Christmas tree
it would be to shed some love
on this world from inside me
and if I had just one wish
I'd ask Santa Clause to bring
some peace and understanding
from sea to shining sea
but Mommy most of all I wish
that every kid could be
loved the way that I am loved
like the way that you love me.
I believe in innocense yeah
I believe in dreams
I do not believe in prejudice
because someone is not like me
The sweet scent of an evergreen
fills the crisp December air
Gifts are wrapped while candles burn
I got so much love to share
and if I had just one wish
to put beneath my Christmas tree
it would be to shed some love
on this world from inside me
and if I had just one wish
I'd ask Santa Clause to bring
some peace and understanding
from sea to shining sea
but Mommy most of all I wish
that every kid could be
loved the way that I am loved
like the way that you love me.
Yeah, Mommy most of all I wish
that every kid could be
loved the way that I am loved
like the way that you love me.
