How I Wish - Trijntje Oosterhuis

Reaching for stardust

Wanting to touch the highest sky

Lost in the bright lights

I never stopped to wonder why

Always flying to somewhere

Always some trip to take my time

Now wherever I go You are the one thing on my mind

it’s making no sense to me All the things I strive to do When all I really need

Is to spend my life with you

How I wish we could run away

On a warm summer night

Far, far away

To the waterside

Nowhere to be Nothing to do but dream our dreams

Could I ask for more?

Alone with my baby

That’s all I wish for…

Now the minute I wake up You are the sunrise on my day

The cream in my coffee

The angel that sends me on my way

How could I have ever thought

That the world meant more than this

When everything melts away

In the sweetness of your kiss

How I wish we could run away

On a warm summer night

Far, far away

To the waterside

Nowhere to be Nothing to do but dream our dreams

Could I ask for more?

Alone with my baby

The feelings you wake in me Are a bliss I never knew

Now all I really need

Is to spend my life with you

How I wish we could run away

On a warm summer night

Far, far away

To the waterside

Nowhere to be Nothing to do but dream our dreams

Could I ask for more?

Alone with my baby

That’s all I wish for…
