Get up every morning to the sound of my alarm
I tumble out of bed and I nearly break my arm
I fix myself some coffee and I think about my day
I wonder to myself if I could live some other way
And I say, kiss me baby
Kiss me good
I'd like to feel you, feel you if I could
Wait a minute, I’m not awake
Thought I was, my mistake
Can I make a wish, wish upon a star
Wish for something more
Be where you are
Can I make a wish, wish for the best
Wish for something more
Wish to be blessed
Can I make a wish
Go out to my car but all the tires have been slashed
The windows are all broken and bumpers have been smashed
It was such a junker so it took me by surprise
That someone picked my piece of shit to wreck and vandalize
And I say, why me baby
Why me Lord
Can't pay to fix this, I can't afford
Wait a minute, am I asleep
Back in bed, counting sheep
If I had one wish, I’d wish to be with you
You would make it better
In the way that you do
If I had one wish, I’d wish to see your face
You could save my ass
With your splendor and your grace
