A Wish
I (Am)wish that you would (Dm)notice (Am)me
I wish that (Dm)you'd come (E7)near
I (Am)wish I had something to re(Dm)member you (Am)by
I wish that (E7)you would (Am)hear.
'Cause (G)tangible proof is (C)what I need
To (Dm)know that good is (E7)real
And (Am)when I'm low and (D)all alone
Your (Am)kindness (G)I would (Am)feel.
So please oh please do (Dm)hear my (Am)cry
Oh hear me (Dm)sing to (E7)you
And (Am)in the long dark (D)hours of night
Please (Am)see me (G)passing (Am)through
And know I (G)think of (Am)you.

Oh my gosh you wrote this?? Gorgeous!! It is indeed very Middle Age sounding. 5/5

Yes, I did write it. :-) Maybe it's the minor key that it's in that makes it sound that way? Anyway, thank you. :-)

That was superb. Makes me think of a medieval banquet and strolling lute musicians. Really lovely!

Thank you! Everyone says this song sounds "old". I guess I just think in more ancient ways sometimes. :-)
