Jem - Wish I Lyrics
Baby, you're sailing today
Baby, you're sailing away
Sugar, wish I could go too
But honey you know
I'm happy for you
Wish I, I wish I, I wish I
Wish I was going too
Baby, your ship has come in
Baby, adventures will begin
Sugar, don't you worry 'bout me
Coz honey you know
Want you to be happy
Wish I, I wish I, I wish I
But if you find that you don't like it
That the people there aren't inviting
Or that city life is too frightening
Won't you come home
But if you find that you don't like it
That the people there aren't inviting
Or that city life is too frightening
Won't you come home
Please come home
Wish I, I wish I, I wish I
Wish I was going too
Wish I, I wish I, I wish I
Wish I was going too

Jem Wish I Comments
U BCK THANKS ILYTOO.
Completely forgot about this, no idea why it popped up in my head today. Took a while to remember the lyrics lol, at first I only had the video in my mind, then the melody. In my head she was blonde
What do you call this genre? Me likey.
Thumbs-up if #AsdaRadio brought you here... :D
Saw this years ago on a pub tv and loved it. Has driven me crazy for years as I didn't know who she was singing it...and then, tonight, on BBC Radio 2 I AT LAST got to hear it again and hear the singer's name. Ah the joy the joy.
Our very own Welsh lass...wonder what shes up to now ?
Love island 2005 theme tune lol
The title music for series one of Love Island...
Takes me back to an old Channel 4 in the UK show called “Shipwrecked ,” which for the first few series’ used this or at least the backing track as its opening titles theme. I think the show went downhill after that though.
This reminds me that I must dig out Jem’s album from my CD mountain. Another artist who should’ve gone so much further and been so much bigger. Probably in some dank corner of England doing the wife and mother thing now all these years later? Ahhh wasted teenage years of youthful abandon. 🙄
I wonder if they are still together
Tune 😍
Where is she now? 2018
She sounds like Dido.
Such a beautiful song with excellent words
The original Love Island...♥
Wish it didn't cut off like it did
There's a better one here, but the first drum hit has been edited out at the beginning... https://youtu.be/9EY0DwIl6Zw
What happened to Jem
Great song,excellent video,great sweet voice!!
The guy in bed with her was actually her boyfriend at the time.
one of the sweetest songs. feels good every time I hear it. it has a great beach and vacation vibe. perfect video to capture the song. Jem was only 28 in this video. she's now 42 years old! damn time flies..
If yo hart iz poundin diz iz da one fo yo one
Wasn't he supposed to brush his teeth first, before he ate the fruit?
Nice Song!!👍👍
What kind of a shit breakfast is that? Papaya and kiwi? "GIMME some eggs and bacon, bitch!"
😪 miss these times
This song popped into my head today, gave it a listen then thought I'd read up on the singer and what she's been up to - turns out her and the guy who plays her love interest in this video married a few years after meeting while shooting this and are still together!
Милаша
Its been 12 years. One heck of a classic on vh1. Golden memories.
Beautiful ! Hard to believe that there is even one dislike to this.
That would be because they let just anyone on the internet in this day and age...
oh... that was so good...
Love this song
oh my god what is
2016 who's watching this?!! 😁😁
This song makes me feel like I am on an island someplace in Europe. WISH I was.
MULTICHURRASCO clearly never been to Europe! lol
There's always Tahiti :)
It is similar to the same kinda music they use in Angus Thongs and Perfect Snogging.
Great to dance modern jive 2
Did she say titty life is too frightening?
Taj Riggs her speech impediment is what made her so great
City life is too frightening
HAHAHAHAHA titty life!
Love the song but can't help but hear "titty" life is to frightening 😂😂😂
This reminds me of 'Big Girls Don't Cry' by The Four Seasons.
Celebrity Love island brought me here :)
Still the theme tune?
Not anymore, it's a completely different theme now, to me it's not as good as this one
love this song and her cd too xxxxx
this song makes me relax
it's been raining and cold for so long here... Needed a shot of sunny sweetness. Thanks, Jem, and Lian G!!!
aah memories of nothing specific, just a different time and feeling
+Kcuf elgoog Oh, you know it!!
Kcuf elgoog totally 🙌🏻
grey's anatomy season 1 episode 7
1,000,000 😊
I was ordering some wings at Nandos and this song was playing. Pretty catchy mate.
I know that feeling cause I was shopping for shoes yesterday and the music came on. It's been donkey ages since I heard this song last so I came searching for it here on you tube.
Thanks for this Jem video. Her album from the early 2000's doesn't seem to be available on my Spotify player. So now I just plug my iphone into the gear4 mp3/DAB/Internet radio player for my iPhone 3GS
Soundhound caught this for me right as it was ending when I walked into Royal Farms last night. What an awesomely happy song
that just her welsh accent you couldn't tell that how we talk
Charming track !!
I thought the 't' in the second word was missing for a second there...
This is one of those songs that make you grateful for apps like Shazam... I honestly couldn't make out what the heck she says most of the song, finding it would've been hell...
Why not ? She´s singing in English - I can understand every word! Then again, I'm from England.
Now...I wonder if Shazam can help out with Mandarin, or Sardu...
@Nowhere Man because she sings in a whispered mumble and the sound mixing is almost louder than her singing, hearing this over the radio makes it pretty unintelligible. When I first heard this song I could only make out part of the bridge, but luckily my app caught the tune.
littlekasino I heard this in a store and was like damn this sounds so damn soothing. Thank goodness Shazam was made lol it came in handy.
It did take me a while - I was in the ASDA toilets only this morning, resorting to holding up my phone to the ceiling speaker to finally string a few words together so I could google it...
This is one beautiful lady who has a soulfully smooth voice. This is a great song.
love this song
Wish I....hadn't watched this video. My mental image of this song was way better lol
+Matt M mine too!!
Care to elaborate...?
I heard this song on the PA at KFC one day. I stood under the speaker trying to decipher a phrase from the lyrics but couldn't make anything out except what sounded like "wishing" or "wish I". Little did I know I was hearing the title of the song, which made finding it doable. Always wondering would have bugged me to death otherwise.
Haha just really crappy speakers. Sometimes it's for the better though. I don't like most of the stuff they play. Could be worse though...plus, there's been a bunch of songs I would have never known about/liked otherwise!
Yes, that happens a lot as well. You too!!
You and me both! I was in the ASDA gents only this morning holding my phone up to the ceiling speaker to get a few words to string together so I could finally google it properly - didn't know it was so old (this song, not my phone!)... #AsdaRadio
What a tune mate xx
I like this because she loves him and is selfless and wants him to be happy even if she can't be with him and will always still be there.
I searched all over for this song.
Very unusual, indeed. Normally they're all about how they want this other person so badly.
Well considering this song came out in '05, and it's 2013, then how many "years" could it have really been? lol
holy crap! Thanks for that. That rocked!
NOSTALGIA ATTACK. My sister LOVED Jem when she was younger, she had the single of They and the full album!
Youtube make good old music is like a treasure or like time machine..
Love Jem, love her voice, she's sexy, talented and intelligent and this song is mellow.
Love how she married the guy in this video, Joseph George! <3 So cute
