Lyrics - Wishing Time
From CD
Goatfooted Balloonman (1980)
Wishing for a game unplayed,
Seeing all I want to see,
Morning into night dismayed,
Wishing I might not be me...
Wishing I could use my hands,
wishing I could use my time,
Wishing I could play unplanned
Upon a stage where now I mime.....
WISHING TIME .... WISHING TIME AWAY
Wishing that tomorrow might
Be not quite like yesterday,
Wishing I'd put out the light
And woken to a sunny day............
Walking in the morning rain,
Wishing most that I could try,
Wishing I could start again
And say hello before goodbye...
WISHING TIME .... WISHING TIME AWAY
Wishing I could catch the sun,
Wishing I could fight the cold,
Wishing for a course to run,
Wishing for a life to hold....
Wishing I could stay afloat,
Wishing I could climb above,
Wishing I could doff my coat,
And walk inside and give my love....
WISHING TIME .... WISHING TIME AWAY
