Lyrics:

I wish I was home again, at home in my heart again
It'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 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

If wishes were fishes I know where I'd be
Casting my net in the dark rollin' sea
And if my net's empty when it comes back to shore
I'll throw it away and go fishing no more.

I wish I could care again, reach out and share again
Mend what's 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

If wishes were fishes I know where I'd be
Casting my net in the dark rollin' sea
And if my net's empty when it comes back to shore
I'll throw it away and go fishing no more.

I wish I was home again, at home in my heart again
It'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
