I Wish ...

V1.
I wish I could go, all the way to the North Pole
I may see Santa, before he will go
Looking for the gift, I wish for this year
He and his reindeer, deliver right here,
Under the Christmas tree, next to my chimney
Midnight Christmas Eve, as the world celebrates.

V2.
But I?ve changed my mind. I hope it's in time
For him give me that which I wished last night.
My friend lives next door, told me yesterday
He was so lonely, cause his father?s (mother?s) away
Several hundred days, fight for our country [serving our country]
So we can be free, as we?ve been always

C1.
I wish his father (mother), can be home a few days
With him celebrate Christmas as always
Maybe Santa will prepare his reindeer
Bring me my new wish, I want for this year.

V3.
I think I will go, all the way to the North Pole
Looking for Santa, before he will go
To search for the gift, I wish for this year
He and his reindeer, deliver right here.
Under the Christmas tree, under that chimney
Midnight Christmas Eve, as the world celebrates

V4.
But I?ve changed my mind. I hope it?s alright.
For him to give me what I wished last night
I remember one day, mother used to say
?Don?t you be afraid, when we are invaded
By those using hate, glorifying their way
Live in the U.S.A., we stand for our right?

C2.
I wish no more day like that late Summer
Eleven September, churning up our world
May be Santa will, prepare his reindeer
Bring me this my wish, I want every year.


V5.
I think I will go, all the way to the North Pole
Looking for Santa, before he will go
To search for the gift, I wish for this year
He and his reindeer, deliver right here.
Under the Christmas tree, next to my chimney
Midnight Christmas Eve, as the world celebrates

V6.
But I?ve changed my mind. I know he will try.
For him give me that wish that I wished for last night
I wish I will see, my world live in peace
So children like me, don?t need to worry
Don?t even have to see, bombs burst in cities
People run away, people lose their lives

C3.
I wish I will live, in a world full of peace
Hunger?s gone away, joining hands we?ll say
Thank you dear Santa, and your trusted reindeer
Giving me my wish, I want many years.
