Wishful Thinking

If miracles existed,
And all these clouds were lifted,
I’d journey straight into the sun
And never once look back

If Heaven's only waiting,
I’d shed these earthly bearings;
With joy I’d take my splintered cross,
And never once regret

If He was really loving,
I’d break these chains still keeping
My tethered spirit from belief,
And never doubt again.
