I Wish You Love
Wishing Love's Redemption: Paul Young's Poignant Journey
Lyrics
It was long ago
Reflecting on a distant past
You remember though
Nostalgic recall
Like it's yesterday
Feels like it happened yesterday
How you took my innocence and then you stole away
Reminiscing about lost innocence and departure
Never to return
The departure is final
Glad it's over now
Relief that it's in the past
I can laugh at now
Can laugh at the situation now
You said I'm the one
Deceived by a false declaration of love
Then you lit the fuse and so amused you turned and run
The betrayer caused harm and found it amusing
And it's me who got burned
Suffered the consequences
But you'll always stay in love they say
First love is memorable
(With the first love, it's your last love)
Emphasizes the significance of first love
And you'll always be a part of me
Despite the pain, the betrayer remains a part of the speaker
Wouldn't want it any other way
Acceptance of the connection
And I wish you luck
Expressing good wishes for the betrayer
I wish you love
Wishing love for the betrayer
Wherever you call home
Wherever they reside
And you'll always be a part of me
The betrayer remains a part of the speaker
May you never be alone
Wishing the betrayer companionship
There's been many times
Reflecting on moments of despair
When I feel that I'm
Feeling isolated
Living in despair
Believing in a dream shared by no one
And believing in a dream that nobody shares
Living and learning from experiences
Well you live and learn
Acceptance of life's lessons
But you'll always stay in love they say
Reiteration of the lasting impact of first love
(With the first love, it's your last love)
Emphasizes the significance of first love
And you'll always be a part of me
The betrayer remains a part of the speaker
Wouldn't want it any other way
Acceptance of the enduring connection
And I wish you luck
Expressing good wishes for the betrayer
I wish you love
Wishing love for the betrayer
Wherever you call home
Wherever they reside
And you'll always be a part of me
The betrayer remains a part of the speaker
May you never be alone
Wishing the betrayer companionship
But you'll always stay in love they say
Reiteration of the lasting impact of first love
And you'll always be a part of me
The betrayer remains a part of the speaker
But you'll always stay in love they say
Reiteration of the enduring nature of first love
(With the first love, it's your last love)
Emphasizes the significance of first love
And you'll always be a part of me
The betrayer remains a part of the speaker
Wouldn't want it any other way
Acceptance of the enduring connection
And I wish you luck
Expressing good wishes for the betrayer
I wish you love
Wishing love for the betrayer
Wherever you call home
Wherever they reside
And I'm here to tell
Expressing good wishes
I wish you well
Wishing well for the betrayer
May you never be alone
Wishing the betrayer companionship
