I Wish, I Wish Lyrics

I wish I knew, I wish I knew
What makes me me, what makes you you
It's just another point of view ah...
A state of mind I'm going through ah...
So what I see is never true ah...

I wish I could tell, I wish I could tell
What makes a heaven, what makes a hell
And do I get to ring my bell ah...
Or land up in some dusty cell ah...
While others reach the big hotel ah...

I wish I had, I wish I had
The secret of good, the secret of bad
Why does this question drive me mad ah...
'Cos I was taught when but a lad ah...
That bad was good and good was bad ah...

I wish I knew the mystery of
That thing called hate that thing called love
What makes the in between so rough ah...
Why is it always push and shove ah...
I guess I just don't know enough ah...

I wish I knew, I wish I knew.
