If Wishes Were Horses, How Beggars Would Ride (5:02)

I wish I could promise I'll
Be there when you dream
I wish that when you spoke to me
I'd know what you mean

But you can't bring me comfort
By filling up my eyes
They don't stay dry
Hard as I try
Can't figure why
Made I this choice

I wish all about you
Sweet spirit black as night
That you will wake and laugh and say
"I've come back from the light"

But you can't bring me comfort
By filling up my eyes
They don't stay dry
Hard as I try
Can't figure why
Made I this
Choice

[lyrics uncertain here]

If wishes were horses, how beggars would ride

But you can't bring me comfort
By filling up my eyes
They don't stay dry
Hard as I try
Can't figure why
Made I this choice

Hard as I try
They don't stay dry
Hard as I try
Can't remember why
