The Wishing Man
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I wish a world where the greatest need is integration
I wish a world where man knows he’s one with the creation
I wish a world where one meets G’d through inner reflection
I wish a world where the truth is shown through all its versions
Oh, how I wish this world, how I wish this day
I dream of all this and fall on my knees and pray
Oh, how I wish this world
Oh, how I'm sure that now it’s possible
I wish a world where the honest man is not the tomfool
And treacherous ones are not taken for the greatest Joe Cool
I wish a world where a tear is not weakness’s confession
And faithful ones are not beaten by the cheaters’ passion
Oh, how I wish this world, how I wish this day
I pray every single night, every single day
Oh, how I wish this world
Or how I’d wish it were impossible
I wish a world where there is no more greed or division
A peaceful world with just one government, one religion
I wish a world where the wise men read the Book of Nature
And teach us all the creator is the greatest creature
Oh, how I wish this world, how I wish this day
I dream of all this and fall on my knees and pray
Oh, how I wish this world
Oh, how I fear it’s now impossible
One I am no more
How could I forget you, dear
One I am no more?
All was left behind
One I am no more
How could I forget you, dear
One I am no more?
Were you left behind?
