i wish you'd take my hand
as we watch the moon shining in the night sky
wind caressing our faces
dancing leaves and spiralling flowers
fluttering gently down on the sidewalk
counting the stars that peek out from the clouds
close my eyes and imagine it's real
and thinking of all things pretty in the world
golden seashells and rainbow hearts
would be what i'd paint for you
i wish you'd take my hand
as we walk along the seashore
listening to the waves lap on the shore
feeling the sand between our toes
tasting the salty sea breeze
breathing in the fresh cool air
throw our hands up to the sky
and yell what's in my heart to the sea
without a care in the world
fragile sea glass and bottled sea sand
would be what i'd pick for you
i wish you'd just stand there
and let me just look into your eyes
with nary a word, nary a touch.
hear the whisper of the night breeze
dance to the silent symphony playing
throw all my doubts into the passing wind
carry them far away
chuck all the sadness onto the pavement
and watch as the leaves cover them
imagine that perhaps you might
and all things in my fairytale would be right
everything
would be what i'd say to you.
