I wish we could choose who to fall for
I could have chosen the ones that value me
I could have chosen the ones
who would drown in deep waters
to save my soul
I could have chosen
him who would always stay by my side

I wish we could choose
households to grow in
I could have chosen a loving family
I would have chosen a supportive one
that does less gossiping
and more helping
one that stands united nevertheless

I wish we could choose
how our life should be
I would have chosen
a successful one with glee
and less sorrow
I would have chosen
a life free of poverty
I would have chosen one with
promising hopes and dreams

I just wish we could choose
