I wish I could have brought you joy
but instead I\'ve brought you grief
And broke your heart with promises
that were just beyond my reach
I wish I could take back those words
which caused you so much pain
And replaced them with the memories
where only love remains
I wish I could make dreams come true
so you could wish on every star
And embrace the magic on the night
you hold within your arms
I wish I could have taken time
to wipe away your tears
And surround your heart with happiness
to alleviate your fears
I wish I could have been the one
who fulfilled your fantasies
And been the one to encourage you
to follow all your dreams
I wish I could have listened more
with patience in my heart
And held you closer to my side
as we lay there in the dark
I wish I could have thought of this
when at first you got with me
Before I broke your heart with promises
that were just beyond my reach
