WISHING ON A SHOOTING STAR



Just wishing on a shooting star
Shimmery streak in the night sky
Wistful eyes, clasped palms, mouth ajar
Countless desires piling up high

Mesmerized heart has stopped beating
Just wishing on a shooting star
Timeless moment, am savoring
Fly me away to dreamland far

Realms of real life drift afar
Stack of suppressed dreams form towers
Just wishing on a shooting star
Let there be meteor showers!

One silver strand for each sweet wish
Sprinkling glitter from God's gold jar
Soaking in the heavenly bliss
Just wishing on a shooting star
