Wish

Sherri¨¦ Austin

(Billy Falcon)



Last night in a dream

An angel came to me

She granted me one wish

And when she asked what it would be



Did I wish that we all could live in peace?

Did I wish for an end to poverty?

No, I wished it away so selfishly

When I wished that you would always love me



This morning when I woke

I found myself in pain

Though it was just a dream

I was so ashamed



Did I wish that we all could live in peace?

Did I wish for an end to poverty?

No, I wished it away so selfishly

When I wished that you would always love me



If I could only dream that dream once more

I wouldn't make the same mistake that I made before

With my one wish, I'd wish for three wishes more

I'd wish that we all could live in peace

I'd wish for an end to poverty

And here's what my last wish would be

I'd wish that you would always love me.
