Trijntje Oosterhuis - How I Wish

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...
