lyrics

I can’t keep my eyes off ‘a you
and I can’t help myself, or what I do
I just gotta watch the way you move
And I just gotta touch, would ya like me to.

I,I,I,I,I,I,I…….

Wish all the other songs had been for you
And I wish that the sky was always blue
And that our hearts would never be that colour too
I wish, I wish

Now I surrender, at last I surrender
I never felt this good before standing at an open door
Now I surrender, at last I surrender
I never felt this safe before with my head in a blender

I,I,I,I,I,I,I…….

Wish all the other songs had been for you
And I wish that the sky was always blue
And that our hearts would never be that colour too
I wish

And I wish all the other times had been with you
And I wish that my wishes would all come true
For you and I and me and you
I wish, I wish

I,I,I,I,I,I,I…….

Wish all the other songs had been for you
And I wish that the sky was always blue
And that our hearts would never be that colour too
I wish

And I wish all the other times had been with you
And I wish all the songs I’ve sung were sung for you
If I’d known you then I would have wanted to
I wish, I wish, I wish, I wish, I wish.
