By: Cedric McClester;

Wish that I were clever
I’d write you a rhyme
My love is forever
It won’t fade with time
But I lack the talent
As well as the skill
To say that I love you
And I always will

I wish I was a poet
I’d write you a poem
To convey my gratitude
For the love you've shown
But I lack the knowledge
And the facility
To express everything
That’s inside of me

Wish that I were many things
That I might never be
Wish I had a way with words
But I don’t unfortunately
If I could paint a picture
Of my love for you
Believe me sweetheart
That's exactly what I would do

I wish oh so many things
That might not come true
Like gathering up the courage
Just to say that I love you
I only hope I show it
Because this much is true
I have never felt the way
That I do with you

Wish that I were many things
That I might never be
Wish I had a way with words
But I don’t unfortunately
If I could paint a picture
Of my love for you
Believe me sweetheart
That's exactly what I would do


I wish for so many things
That might not come true
Like gathering up the courage
Just to say that I love you
I only hope I show it
Because this much is true
I have never felt the way
That I do with you
Wish That I Were are song lyrics written by Cedric McClester and Giorgio Alessani.
