Wishing |
| I saw a star |
| Falling |
| Like an old |
| Hollywood actress |
| A neon sign |
| With just one letter showing |
| A burned out light |
| At my feet |
| I took a wish |
| I wished on that jewel |
| From the sky |
| I wished on the moon |
| Haunting the trees |
| A target too big for the sky |
| I wanted it so bad |
| I was wishing on a prayer |
| But it kept right on dodging |
| A riderless horse |
| To the left, to the right |
| Straight to the eye |
| Yet changing direction |
| There within reach |
| And then out of sight |
| I’d waited too long |
| Watched for that pot to boil |
| Waited too long for the whistle |
| I wanted it so bad |
| I was wishing on a prayer |
| But it kept right on dodging |
| A riderless horse |
| To the left, to the right |
| Straight to the eye |
| Yet changing direction |
| There within reach |
| And then out of sight |
