From the recording I Wish
Lyrics
I Wish©2010 Doug SpearsOh I wish I could remember all the faces that I've seen,All the creases, lines and wrinkles full of life lived in between,But you know I do remember every shape of your smile,The smile that hid such sadness so hard to reconcile. Oh I wish, Oh I wish,Oh I wish I could remember you right back into my life.And I wish I could remember all the voices that I've heard,Voices singing from the heart in strong and simple words, But you know I do remember the very texture of your laugh,A laugh that echoes from your eyes in treasured photographs.Oh I wish, Oh I wish,Oh I wish I could remember you right back into my life. And I'm living with the memory of all the times I thought we'd share, And how I might have kept you here if only I had dared.And I wish I could remember all the tears that I've cried,Tears of joy and sorrow, tears that had no reason why,But you know I do remember the tears of your goodbye,Tears that stain my broken heart and never seem to dry.Oh I wish, Oh I wish,Oh I wish I could remember you right back into my life.Oh I wish, Oh I wish,I wish I could remember you back into my life.
