When I was just a little girl
I'd wish for many things,
The one I can remember most
was the fairy dress with wings.

Just to have a set of wings
To soar up in the sky
To imagine as a little girl
With wings, “I could fly.”

My wish was never granted
The wings, they never came
Instead I got a fancy dress
I loved it all the same.

As the years began to pass me by
My wishes became very few
For something about being older
Wishes don't seem to come true.

Just out of curiosity this year
I decided to make a final wish,
Instead of asking for material things
My wish went something like this...

Oh, Knight in shining armor
This wish I send to you
Please hear my plea of mercy
And come to my rescue.
Come take me on a journey
To that land so far away
The land of love you come from
Take me there this day.
Hold me forever in your presence
Keep me captive in your sight
I shall never escape your love
If you take me there, this night.

With all the years that passed me by
This wish, I did receive
Now with all my heart and soul
In wishes I  believe.

It took me by surprise, you see
Cause my wishes never came true
But never before, had I ever wished
For someone as wonderful as YOU.
