What Friends Sometimes Wish
Just a handshake and the cancer would retreat,
Just a touch on the arm and his pain would go away,
Just a hug and she’d be able to get some sleep --
-- We wish our hands could perform some miracles today.
Just a kiss on the forehead and demon screams would stop,
Just an arm around the shoulder to keep the night terrors at bay,
Just a caress on the cheek and the raging fever would drop --
-- We wish our hands could perform some miracles today.
Perhaps our jokes pull you back from sad tomorrows,
Maybe our laughter helps your heart to dance and play,
We hope our smiles send some light into your sorrows,
But we wish our hands could perform some miracles today.
