I Wish You Love

Artist: Nancy Wilson

Album: Great Ladies of Song

Song Length: 2:00

George's Thoughts: A classic that has been performed by many artists, from Dean Martin to Natalie Cole. However, most versions are just too slow. Nancy Wilson's is a perfect 29bpm and it has a clearly defined beat that makes it very danceable. The reference to snowflakes makes it a terrific choice for winter events.

Song Lyrics:

I wish you bluebirds in the spring,
to give your heart a song to sing,
And then a kiss,
but more than this,
I wish you love.

And in July a lemonade
to cool you in some leafy glade,
I wish you health,
and more than wealth,
I wish you love.

[Chorus:]
My breaking heart and I agree
that you and I could never be,
So with my best,
my very best,
I set you free.

I wish you shelter from the storm,
a cozy fire to keep you warm,
But, most of all,
when snowflakes fall,
I wish you love.

[Chorus]

I wish you shelter from the storm,
a cozy fire to keep you warm,
Most of all,
when snowflakes fall,
I wish you love.
But most of all,
I wish you love.
