Wish I had the money
Instead of the time
Wish I had the right words
Instead of the rhyme

Wouldn't it be nice to have
Something to show
Wouldn't it be nice to have
Somewhere to go
Maybe if you find the time
You'll show me the way
Through the night

Wish I had the wisdom
Instead of the years
Wish I had the loving
Without the tears

You're looking for an easy way
There'll never be an easy way
You're looking for an easy way
Through the night

Wish I'd stop running
And learn to walk
Wish I could listen
The way I can talk
