I’ve seen you
Many, many times.
But I keep failing
To read the signs.
I think one thing.
You think the other.
A major miscommunication,
Oh no!  Oh brother!

Chorus:
I blow out my candles
And I wish.
I see a shooting star
And I wish.
I find a four-leaf clover
And I wish.
I wish for you.
That it’d be just us two.

It occurred to me today
As you were standing there.
You’re my wish,
My prayer.
You’re the one I want.
The one I need.
I love you so much.
For you I plead.

Chorus:
I blow out my candles
And I wish.
I see a shooting star
And I wish.
I find a four-leaf clover
And I wish.
I wish for you.
That it’d be just us two.

Every night
I lay on my bed.
I pray to get you,
For my desire to be fed.
It breaks my heart
That you can’t see.
That I’m your wish,
Your desperate plea.

Chorus:
I blow out my candles
And I wish.
I see a shooting star
And I wish.
I find a four-leaf clover
And I wish.
I wish for you.
That it’d be just us two.  ©
