Make a Wish

I wish that I had your patience
I wouldn't have to be afraid
I wish that I had your patience
I wouldn't have to be afraid

I wish that I had your reason
I wouldn't have to make mistakes
Oh, I wish that I had your reason
I wouldn't have to make mistakes

And I blow on my cake, and I make a wish
And I hope to God to do my best
And I blow on my cake, and I make a wish
And I hope to God to do my best

I wish that I had your presence
I wouldn't have to hide myself
Oh, I wish that I had your presence
I wouldn't have to hide myself
