Wish I didn't feel so helpless
Wish I didn't act so selfish
My hair was a little bit smoother
My jeans fit a little bit looser
And I always knew the right things to say
what's been going on inside
I wish I was doing better
with all the things that matter
I guess I've got some learning to do
I wish everyone had someone
to hold and learn to love in the way
I'm always gonna love you
Wish there was a cure for cancer
Wish somebody had an answer
And all God's children never got hurt
Wish he'd never bit that apple
Young men never went to battle
And I didn't get so mad at the world
Wish I was more like Jesus
And could pick up all the pieces
And make a better life for my baby girls
Oh, wish I was doing better
With all the things that matter
I guess I've got some learning to do
Wish everyone had someone
To hold and learn to love in the way
I'm always gonna love you
Of everything I'm wishing
someone's up there listening
So I sing my prayers when I go to bed
With all the things that matter
Yes, I've got some learning to do
I wish everyone had someone else
I'm always gonna love you
I wish I wish I wish I wish
