I wish I were a baby, in this love
With the wisdom of a thousand men before me
In a blue Cadillac on the eve of the new year
I wish I was a fine wine, I wish I were a good drug
Sometimes
Sometimes
Just like a good lover, which one do you prefer?
Or maybe more the sunrise waking up to a sad man
Just like a good lover, which one do you prefer?
I wish I was a fine wine, I wish I were a good drug
And there I would have saved him, the man who sang the blues
I'd be cradled in your arms day and night
Hey and if I were Jesus, maybe I could heal all of us
I'd make a beautiful picture every time I went to bed
I wish I were an angel in fifty-two
I wish I were an old man, a scholar
And hey if I were the blue skies, I'd never rain on him
Hey and if I were Jesus, maybe I could heal all of us
I wish I were a funny dream that haunted
Maybe he is listening right now
People I love every time they were down
In a world full of vices, I wish I were a little bird
In a world full of vices, I wish I were a little bird
I wish I were the sunset in Verona
