Wish I Was
At the bottom of your wishing well
Looking up, the sky I see
Don't see you lowering rope with pail
Or hear you wish for me

Can't see my name on your shopping list
To buy a box of me
I could be a tasty snack
Taken with a cup of tea.

Wish I was a stock you own
No load no kind of fee
I'd be a good investment
And good security

Wish I was some famous art
And hanging on your wall
An oil of you loving me
On gold leaves in the fall

Wish I was that medicine
You must take each day
I would make you healthy
And keep sickness far away

Wish I was your poets pen
Writing love poems in deep blue
Everyone would be about me
And how much I love you

Wish I was your old shoes
Walking down the street
I'd make you walk to my house
I'd give you happy feet
