I Wish Lyrics

(Anderson/Meyer)
Met a man from Ireland
Drinking in a bar
Although his voice was soft and warm
His eyes were cold and hard
He spoke of Irish children
Knowing only war
I wish I could've known him better
I might've understood it all

(And) I wish there was something I could say
Something to ease the pain away

I hear the voice of Poland
It's calling out to me
Sighing, crying
Dying to be free
Their streets are full of armourRemedy - I Wish - http://motolyrics.com/remedy/i-wish-lyrics.html
Their eyes are full of tears
Must they live this life of sadness
For years and years and years

(And) I wish there was something I could say
Something to ease the pain away

I wish I was a hero
Fighting for the rights of man
Wish I was a tribesman
In the hills of Afghanistan
I wish I was a soldier
Fighting for the peace
Fighting down in El Salvador
Fighting insanity, inhumanity

I wish there was something I could say
Something to ease the pain away
