I wish upon a million shining stars
That I was yours again,
But you are where you are
And that won’t ever change.
Will it ever feel quite right,
This pain of separate place?
Or will my heart always be in pain
When I see your face?

I know that I cannot expect
To be the center of your life,
But would it be so selfish
To wish for just one night?
To simply lie beside you,
And have you hold me one last time
Before I say goodbye.

Would it be so wrong
If it made everything seem right
To wish for a place
Directly by your side?
I would give the world
To look into your eyes
And see reflected all the love
That I feel I’ve been denied.

Maybe I’m the wrong one,
Maybe it’s a lie,
Maybe I don’t understand
The way things change with time.
Maybe I’m just fooling
My heart, my brain, my mind,
Or maybe I’m just trying
To find a place to hide.

I know that I am young,
I have my entire life;
I’m looking in the wrong place
For my Mr. Right;
But everyone has left me,
I’ve nowhere else to go;
I can only think to go to you
And now, you’re not at home.

No wishes from a genie
Can bring the kind of cure
That makes this kind of heartache
Not hurt me anymore.
The most I can expect
To find within this time
Is a way to forget
That you were ever mine.
