I wish I was bolder; I wish I was brave.
I wish I didn't count my days by the things I didn't say
And I wish I had the guts, I wish I had the goal, I wish I had a girl
I wish I had it all, I wish that I was married
I wish that I was rich, I wish I had a life and this wasn't it
Just start a modern job, have modern life
With modern money, a modern wife
A modern winter, a modern haul
A modern fiction, a modern faul
I want a modern guy, a modern daughter
With a modern job
A modern child, a modern boy
A modern God
From this modern world
That's all I have
I wish I was bolder; I wish I was brave.
I wish I didn't count my days by the things I didn't say
And I wish I had the guts, I wish I had the goal, I wish I had a girl
I wish I had it all, I wish that I was married
I wish that I was rich, I wish I had a life and this wasn't it
