i wish i may, i wish i might, steal your heart
i wish i were the one you were wishin' for
i wish to hold you close, to never part
i wish this star would offer me your heart

the night was still 'cept for all the twinkling stars
a thousand, still, for other wishers to wish upon
but none as vivid nor quite as mystical
as the one this lonely heart was wishin' on

i wish i may, i wish i might steal your heart
i wish i were the one you were wishin' for
i wish to hold you close, to never part
i wish this star would offer me your heart

below this sky of flaming wonderment
i wish i were the answer to your happiness
i wish i were, this moment, where you are
or you were right beside me where i knelt

i wish i may, i wish i might, steal your heart
i wish i were the one you were wishin' for
i wish to hold you close, to never part
i wish this star would offer me your heart

the stars went out, the night grew eeire dark
the tears streamed down and so did your lovin' heart
i swear to you, i wished you into my heart
that night you came to me a shooting star

i swear to you i wished you into my heart
that night you came to me a shooting star
