“I wish I could promise I'll
Be there when you dream
I wish that when you spoke to me
I'd know what you mean”

"If Wishes Were Horses, How Beggars Would Ride" - Live performance (29 June 1999) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gyG_g73R0wY
Many Worlds Are Born Tonight (1998)
Context: I wish I could promise I'll
Be there when you dream
I wish that when you spoke to me
I'd know what you mean But you can't bring me comfort
By filling up my eyes
They don't stay dry
Hard as I try
Can't figure why
Made I this choice

“And wishes he had known these things
while still alive.”

"Temporary And Eternal" - Live performance, later used on the compilation album The Keep (16 May 1995) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YiIqnvFAoHs
Equipoise (1993)
Context: He is broken, far from free
Words were spoken, 'tween him and me:
"I had friends, yes, I was admired
I'm so old now, feel so tired."
Well he walks to the gate and he looks behind
at life in rewind
And wishes he had known these things
while still alive.

“Where're you going Ra?
Take me with you Ra…
You're such a busy God
I wish you could stay
I only want to play and play
But you're such a busy god
and I'm such a mortal Ra”

"Ra Is A Busy God" - Live performance at New Haven, CT (4 April 2003) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dmbHQ0rwCBQ
