I Wish I Was… - David Soul

I wish, I was the sunlight

Gently reaching out in space

And I wish you were the chilly morn'

So I could warm your face

And I wish, I was a spider

'Cause I’ve got a web to weave

And I wish you were a captured fly

So that you’d never leave

But I’m just a man

And you are just a girl

Though we walk hand in hand

With too much of this world

Oh and I wish, I was a scarecrow

'Cause I’ve got a scare or two

And I wish you were a stock of corn

With me protecting you

And I wish, I was a pillow

'Cause I’ve got some softness too

And I wish you were a weary head

Alone just me and you
