Wish - Daniel Johnston, Mark Linkous

I’ll never be happy, I wish that I would

Unless you can love me, if only you could

I used to be lonely, knock on wood

What do you think of me?

It’s understood

And now I wander all my life just to get by

The tears flow like wine

And now I find you’re so far away

And I love you

Love you

Apart from Jesus, I find new hope

I seek salvation in a bar of soap

To wash away my sins before I go

And make a new day, say 'Hey, I can cope'

I’ve always been lonely, 'Till I met her

Making me shine, all the time

Her love was mine

And I love her

Love her

If you were just for me, that would be good

I’d be really happy, I wish that I could

I used to be lonely, knock on wood

I wish that you’d love me, I misunderstood

I just can’t get by, you were a high

You were so lovely, I really believed

Now you’re so far away

I still love you

Love you
