If Wishes Were Horses

Woke up this mornin', missin' you
Wishing there was something I could do
Besides roll out of bed and start another day

Turned on the news, tried to listen to the man
Turned it off, I just don't give a damn
Wish he could tell me why you went away

Oh, I wish I could turn back the hands of time
Wish you were here by my side
But if wishes were horses, beggars would ride

Went to work, heard somebody say
How ya doin', man, well, I'm doing okay
I wish they all didn't know that I was lying

I try to lose myself in my job
Everybody says I never worked so hard
I wish deep down, I didn't feel so much like crying

Oh, I wish I could turn back the hands of time
Wish you were here by my side
But if wishes were horses, beggars would ride

When I fall off to sleep at night
I dream I'm still with you
How I wish, I could make those dreams come true
