Lyrics:
My Wish
by Joanna Wallfisch
Please can we slow down time
Cause its running too fast,
and I can’t keep up
Send me a note in the post
Let the words trail behind
in the wind
I’ll be listening with pen ready
To catch every passing day we spent together
Laughing in the rain
And I’d do it all again,
if I could
Let’s take back the nos and the worrys
The unnecessary sorrys
That we know’ve been forgiven
And give back the time
That we lost cause we often forgot
That we’re only human,
So sometimes we lack,
And sometimes we’re everything that we dreamt of
The we were but a child,
Running wild with
Pure imagination…
If I had one wish
Then I’d make a wish that the wish could be two
And then I’d give my wish
To someone who needed their wish to come true
Then I’d use my wish to see you real soon.
So, please can we slow down time, Cause it’s running too fast
And I keep falling down.
I’ll sing to the wind
And I’ll cling to this memory
Of when I last clung to you,
Do you recall
That ordinary day
The sky was clearing after such a lot of rain,
And I’d do it all again, if I could.
