# How I wish that you were mine.

This is, of course My Cherie Amour by Stevie Wonder, or at least the first verse. Comments are welcome, I know my typeglob skills are a little rough, so I hope that assignment was right. Any song that starts out with the word "my" reminds me too much of Perl.

BTW, is this the correct category for such nonsense?
