I Wish
One by one
Stars drop out the sky
One then two
You close your eyes, I sigh
And I wish
The night shivers
You pull me in
I wish it didn’t matter
But I can’t pretend
And I wish
We’re falling backwards
We’re falling down
I whisper a secret
And stare at the ground
And I wish
for so many things, I wish
For dreams and words and deeds undone, I wish
Why does it have to be like this?
There was a time
Your heart would melt in my kiss
We could have been anything
We could have been everything
And I wish
for one last chance, I wish
For ghosts and worlds, mistakes unmade, I wish
But it is what it is
One by one
Stars drop out the sky
One then two
You close your eyes, I sigh
And I wish
Forever, I wish
