Wishing

If I could reach the sky, my love
And touch the highest cloud
I’d bring that cloud down to the earth
And make you feel so proud.

If I could reach the moon, my love
I’d capture the old man’s smile
I’d bring that smile back down to you
Yours to embrace for a while.

If I could reach the stars, my love
I’d find one for your hair
And fetch that star down from the sky
A jewel for you to wear.

If I could reach the sun, my love
I’d gather in one of its beams
And add it to your life
As part of all your dreams.

But since I can’t reach a cloud, my love
Or capture the moon or a star
And a sunbeam is also too far away
I’ll love you the way you are.
