Re: I wish
Do regret saying will you marry me, turns out im not best suited to that state, it still haunts me to this day.Also regret being talked into taking a career that suppressed my creative instincts.
Its been said its better to regret things you have done rather than the things you havent done. It would take a win on the lottery to let me achieve some of my goals to create something that will far outlive me.

Re: I wish
Tough one for me Pappy. So many years have gone by now that I’m not sure what I wished I shouldn’t have done and what I should have done, I can’t think of anything really, but whatever I’ve done it worked out great for the family and me. Maybe the wife and me should have had more children, we would have loved that, but she was so bad on the second child that we decided not to risk it again.On the lighter side of my life, I was sitting in a dance hall many years ago with a workmate and two girls were dancing on the floor right up beside us (they used to dance with each other in those days until the lads came in from the pub next door) One of the girls winked in our direction and I said to my mate “Christ, I hope I don’t have to dance with that Dragon later on” “That’s my Sister” says he, you could light a cigarette off my face, I did regret saying that and should have kept my big mouth shut.

Re: I wish
I wish I was home again at home in my heart againIt's been a long time since my heart talked to me
Wastin' my precious days wishin' my life away
If wishes were fishes we'd all cast nets in the sea
And if wishes were wishes I know where I'd be
Casting my net in the dark rolling sea
And if my net's empty when it comes back to shore
I'll throw it away and go fishing no more.
And I wish I was young again my song still to be sung again
The sweet tunes of my life have gone sour and off key
Writin' my tired old rhymes tryin to turn back time
If wishes were fishes we'd all cast nets in the sea
I wish I could care again reach out and share again
Mend whats been broken and let it run free
The older I get it seems the more wishin' takes the place of dreams
If wishes were fishes we'd all cast nets in the sea
