Here's a pop tune started by Walter's lyric. I thoroughly enjoyed working on this one.
Walter Tokich - lyrics, bass
Paul Dowers - keyboards, drums
Benny Moore - melody, lyrics, acoustic guitar, vocals
Henry Mittnacht (Doc) - electric guitars
I ONLY WISH
You once wrote asking how I feel
But foolish pride kept it all concealed
Now I know what I should have said
Those words that go round, running through my head
(Chorus)
So I close my eyes and I step back in time
I only wish your heart was next to mine
After all these years it just won't fade away
I only wish that I could hold you close
And be with you today
Found your old letters and read each line
Revealing your heart and asking for mine
You wanted me, but I let go
And what I lost, girl I'll never know
(Chorus)
Now I close my eyes and I step back in time
I only wish your hand was holding mine
After all these years it just won't fade away
Girl, I only wish that I could hold you close
And be with you today
(Bridge)
We were so young
Passing notes in school
I didn't know that it was love
But I'm still here, wishing for you
(Chorus)
I close my eyes and I step back in time
And I only wish your heart was next to mine
After all these years it just won't fade away
Girl, I only wish that I could hold you close...
So I close my eyes and I step back in time
And I only wish your lips were kissing mine
After all these years it just won't fade away
Girl, I only wish that I could hold you close
And be with you today
