Lyrics

The Wish

Somebody miscounted, there must be some mistake
Why are there so many dang candles on this cake
I've had a good run, I'll save my speech and save my breath
Let me blow this bonfire out while I still have some wind left

Well of course I'm gonna make a wish, did you think that I'd forget?
Sure my memory's slippin' but it isn't that gone yet
So here it goes now

CHORUS
I wish that wishes would come true and I had an endless supply
I wish I wasn't just an average, ordinary, every-day guy
I wish that I could be your super hero once again
Wish I may or might
No matter what I wish tonight
The best that I can be is your best friend

The party's over, let's go and sit beneath the stars
We'll share our dreams and make believe that they're really ours
Breathlessly we'll watch and wait for one to fall
Maybe we'll just get what we've been wishin' for after all

Well of course I'm really satisfied with the way things are
Still I think I'll keep on searchin' for that fallin' star
There it goes now

REPEAT CHORUS

Wish I may or might
No matter what I wish tonight
I'm glad that I can be your best friend
