I trace the days we spent
Like ink on faded plans
Tokyo in your laugh
Still warm inside my hands
The train lights on the glass
The rain in silver seams
I keep those little scenes
Like folded paper dreams
And sometimes out of nowhere
I wonder where you are
If you’re safe in your morning
Or looking at the stars
Wishing you happiness
Wishing you light
If we both stay happy
That feels alright
Wishing you happiness
Through the quiet night
I miss you, I miss you
But I’m keeping it bright
We walked those crowded streets
With colors everywhere
Your name was on my tongue
Like salt and summer air
I’d go back in a second
To stand there next to you
The same old open sky
The same red-bus route
And if your days are gentle
Then mine can be too
I don’t need anything more
Than you doing well, too
Wishing you happiness
Wishing you light
If we both stay happy
That feels alright
Wishing you happiness
Through the quiet night
I miss you, I miss you
But I’m keeping it bright
Maybe that’s love now
A soft and steady flame
Not holding, not hurting
Just speaking your name
If fate brings us back
To that faraway view
I’ll smile like before
And say thank you
Wishing you happiness
Wishing you light
If we both stay happy
That feels alright
Wishing you happiness
Through the quiet night
I miss you, I miss you
But I’m keeping it bright

Wishing
i-Jay
Not about meeting again. About wishing well.
On "Wishing," i-Jay turns the past into something you can carry without carrying pain. The verses recall Tokyo in vivid, intimate detail-shared streets, familiar skies, small scenes kept like folded paper dreams. But the emotional arc doesn't lean toward "come back." It leans toward gratitude.
This is a song for the space after-when you've grown apart, but the memories still matter. When nostalgia doesn't mean desperation. When love becomes something softer: hoping the other person is safe, happy, and at peace.
The hook says it plainly:
Wishing you happiness
Wishing you light
If we both stay happy
That feels alright
The bridge deepens that idea-love as a steady flame, not a chain. Not holding. Not hurting. Just speaking someone's name with care, even from far away.
Musically, "Wishing" sits in a warm pop-ballad lane-around 102 BPM, grounded in F major, with a vocal-forward mix and a dynamic journey that dips into stillness before the final chorus opens back into light. The artwork mirrors the song: handwritten lines, old photographs, letters tied with twine, golden-hour light across a wooden desk.
"Wishing" is for late nights when you don't want sadness-you want remembrance. When you're not asking to meet again, but quietly hoping you both find your way forward, bright and unbroken.
