Wishful Thinking

All I wanna do is wake up every morning and be happy, i mean carefree
 And all I wanna do, is love my man and be sure that my family, is okay.
 And I wanna sing the songs that i write in my head
 On a stage, in a big place
 And I wanna laugh, until tears fall down my face
 And my abs are aching
 Is that too much to ask, in life, to have?
 Nothing but the sweetest days
 Too much for one to have?
 Or is it wishful thinking?
 Oh I wanna send
 My little brother Solomon to college, with no problem
 And how i hope
 The children that i sponsor down in Chile
 They get the money that i send
 And i wanna fly, To Paris once a year for a vacation,
 With my husband
 And how i hope, the nations will stop fighting and find sweet peace,
 Somewhere down deep.

 Is it too much to ask, in life, to have?
 Nothing but the sweetest days
 Too much, for one, to have?
 Or is it wishful thinking?
 I want my soul to fly free
 Without a single worry
 Fear of anxiety
 Could it be possible for all i wish to have?
 Is that too much to ask, in life, to have?
 Nothing but the sweetest days
 Is that too much, for one, to have?
 Is just too much for me to have?
 Nothing, nothing but the sweetest things
 This is what I want
 what I need in my life
 I wish, I wish, I wish...
