Wish Upon the Moon

I no longer wish upon a Star
I now wish upon the moon
My wishes weren't getting far
But now they seem to bloom

The stars may hold enchantment
The moon has an undeniable pull
Yet holds no kind of resentment
The stars promises are so cruel

So each night when I wish above
I wish to the moons bright light
Whenever I ask for a true love
He comes home to me each night

This is extra-lovely! Disney will have to rewrite Pinocchio: 'When you wish upon the Moon,...' Cheers, Gershon
