[verse 1]
all i wanna do
is wake up every morning and be happy and be care free
and all i wanna do
is love my man and make sure my family is okay
and i wanna sing,
the songs that i write in my head
on a stage, in a big place
and i wanna laugh
until tears fall down my face and my abs, are aching
[hook]
is that too much to ask for, in my life, to have
nothing but the sweetest days
too much, for one, to have
or is it wishful thinking
[verse 2]
oh i wanna send
my little brother solomon to college, with no problem
and how i hope
the children that i sponsor down in chile
they get the money i send
and i wanna fly
to paris once a year for a vacation
with my husband
and i hope
the nation stop fighting and find sweet peace, somewhere down deep
[hook]
[bridge]
i want my soul to fly free
without a single worry
fear or anxiety
could it be possible for all i wish to have
[hook]
