Song Description
A poem about want.
I debated whether to repeat "I want" on each phrase or not... in print it seems unneeded, but when spoken, it seems to lend a certain cohesiveness to it. What do you think?

Lyrics
i want
food
a warm bed
to be loved
a safe place
assurance
a soft pillow
everything
a future
summer vacation
to hit a home run
trust
to be liked
freedom
to be with my friends
the truth
to be tall
an easy path from here to the bar
& back home
physical love
to finish school
liberty
to be a rock star
world peace
to be a poet
a quiet day with a clear blue sky
to live out my life with you
happiness
technology
a music box that plays in-a-gadda-da-vida
your attention
if just for a few moments
the occasional soft day
a comfortable shoe
to be competent
a good night's sleep
to live out my life with you
a crackling fire in the fireplace
to know my children
will live good lives
my doubts to be eased
emotional love
snow on firs
to be on the team
a job well done
to be left alone
a cat in my lap
crickets singing at night
a fire truck
going somewhere else
more time
a light breeze rustling the trees
three day weekends
to be free of wants
simplicity
towering cumulus clouds
no aches & pains
thunder, in the distance
to be a poet
freedom
to know my grandchildren
will live good lives
peace of mind
to be remembered
a small bowl of vanilla ice cream
insurance
a past
to retire
my fears to vanish
summer vacation
to live out my life
with you
one of those big burgers they used to sell
with onions
that's all
i want

and your list is all there, except... make that a big bowl of vanilla ice cream, with chocolate syrup on top.
The piano goes perfectly with the words.
