I Wished Upon a Paper Moon
I wished upon a paper moon
~
I wished upon a paper moon
and fell among the stars
Was whisked away to somewhere good
a place just where you are
Along a winding riverbed
below a willow tree
With fireflies to light the way,
a path for you and me
We laughed as if the world were new
amazed within this scene
Of lily pads and dragonflies
the two of us did dream
Holding hands and skipping stones
the ripples came to shore
Magically they disappeared
as we called out for more
Reflections on the water played
in wavering design
You pointed to the middle
where a heart shape you did find
And then you whispered in my ear
my wish had now come true
Out here beneath this paper moon
in love, just me and you
Good night Soupers
Have a great weekend
