I Wish
Courageous Wishes: Navigating Love's Challenges with Maria Maione
Lyrics
I wish that I could have the courage to be strong
I desire the courage to exhibit strength
I wish that I could have the courage to be wrong
I desire the courage to accept being wrong
I wish that I could have the courage to be strong
Reiteration: I wish for the courage to be strong
I wish that I could have the courage to be wrong
Reiteration: I wish for the courage to be wrong
I wish, I wish, but I don't
Expressing desire, but acknowledging it won't happen
I wish, I wish, but I won't
Expressing desire, but recognizing the lack of action
I, I wish that I could try
Expressing a wish to try, possibly to reconcile
To take you back in time
Expressing a desire to revisit the past
I wish, I wish
Reiteration: Expressing a wish, unspecified
Please let's not fall apart
Plea to avoid a relationship breakdown
I don't want to fall apart
Expressing fear or reluctance to fall apart
I wish that I could tell you that I love you
Desire to confess love
I wish, and I dream, and I hope
Expressing wishes, dreams, and hopes
But I can't, and I don't, and I won't
Expressing inability to fulfill wishes and dreams
All of the good things baby are still right there somehow
Despite challenges, acknowledging the presence of good things
Even the good can't clear my heart from all these clouds
Even positive aspects can't dispel emotional clouds
I wish that I could have the courage to be strong
Reiteration: Desire for the courage to be strong
I wish that I could have the courage to be wrong
Reiteration: Desire for the courage to be wrong
I would go on a walk all alone
Expressing a wish to take a solitary walk
Would call up a friend on the phone
Expressing a wish to connect with a friend
I wish I didn't silence all my thoughts
Regret for suppressing thoughts
I wish I had been stronger from the get go
Regret for not being stronger from the beginning
And I wish and I wish
Repetition: Expressing wishes
And I wish and I wish
Repetition: Continued expression of wishes
All of the good things baby are still right there somehow (I wish that I could have)
Reiteration: Despite challenges, good things persist
Even the good can't clear my heart from all these clouds (I wish that I could have)
Reiteration: Positive aspects can't dispel emotional clouds
All of the good things baby are still right there somehow (I wish that I could have)
Reiteration: Despite challenges, good things persist
Even the good can't clear my heart from all these clouds
Reiteration: Positive aspects can't dispel emotional clouds
And I wish, and I wish, and I wish, we had tried
Expressing a wish for trying in the past
And I wish, still I wish, and I wish we didn't hide
Reiteration: Expressing a wish, possibly regret for hiding
