I wish life was pure.
I wish it was grand.
Like a cloud in the sky or a wisp from my dream, I wish life was as smooth as whipped cream.
I wish life was glorious.
I wish it was always fun.
When the storm rolls in or the trees fall dead, I wish life was as caressing as my bed.
I wish life was easy.
I wish it was filled with love.
So when I break, when I fall, when I quit, when I cry, I wish life would make my sorrows dry.
I wish life was pure.
And I wish it was grand.
I wish life could be as soft as white sand.
I wish life was glorious.
I wish it was always fun.
I wish I could fly through the skies and run and run and run.
I wish life was easy.
I wish it was filled with love.
I wish it was as gentle as a darling white dove.
I wish life was pure.
As pure as pure can be.
So when my world is tainted, Life could help save me.
