I STILL WISH
©2001 Nick Fessler
I still remember what you wore on the day I learned your name
So very happy to have met you and I hoped you felt the same
For I was drawn by your laughter like a moth toward a flame
And now an ember burning in my heart is ever yours to claim
And I still wish ... I had met you first
I still wish ... I had met you first
We would talk for timeless hours but too soon the time was gone
We spoke of yesterday, tomorrow and about what went wrong
Because your heart had just been broken you still heard the hangman’
s gong
So behind a smile you would sing a sad, sad song
And I still wish I could have spared you the agony and hurt
And I still wish I could have shown you love’s best and not it’s worst
And I still wish I could have helped you to quench your thirst
And I still wish ... I had met you first
I still wish ... I had met you first
It still hurts when I pause to think about you
And it gets worse if I dream about me with you
For I still thirst to love someone much like you
And I still wish ... I had met you first
I still wish ... I had met you first
And I still wish I could have spared you the agony and hurt
And I still wish I could have shown you love’s best and not it’s worst
And I still wish I could have helped you to quench your thirst
And I still wish ... I had met you first
I still wish ... I had met you first
I still wish ... I had met you first
