Can we pretend that airplanes
In the night sky
Are like shooting stars
I could really use a wish right now
Wish right now, wish right now
Can we pretend that airplanes
In the night sky
Are like shooting stars
I could really use a wish right now
Wish right now, wish right now
I could use a wish or a genie or a tinkerbell
To find my never ever land to save me from this hell
Can't go back to the that one room shack
Where the floor met the mattress, or the door with the latches
Before all the actors, the models and stuffs
Before all the clubs, the bottles, the cups
We swore we would practice, and ignore all the sadness
Hold onto our wish, even when if they think it is madness
Whatcha gonna do when your wish shows up
So many saw their chance & they just froze up
So airlane airplane, don't leave that runway
I got my ticket, and I swear it's a one way
Can we pretend that airplanes
In the night sky
Are like shooting stars (shooting stars)
I could really use a wish right now
Wish right now, wish right now
Can we pretend that airplanes
In the night sky
Are like shooting stars (shooting stars)
I could really use a wish right now
Wish right now, wish right now
Can somebody take me back in time
When it was nothing but survival on the mind
Working odd jobs, just to hustle for a dime
Didn't work considering living a life of crime
Back when I was working pom pie's chicken, but my rhymes still kicking
Saving up the cash, so that I can take a trip in
Going to a charter bus, four hours still wasn't trippin'
Back when I pushed that demo & they simply wouldn't listen
But that all ceased, I reserved my seat
I angle with the turbulence, I'm back in one piece
You see that airplane that's parked on the runway
Before it takes off, make sure you get your one day
Can we pretend that airplanes
In the night sky
Are like shooting stars (shooting stars)
I could really use a wish right now
Wish right now, wish right now
Can we pretend that airplanes
In the night sky
Are like shooting stars (shooting stars)
I could really use a wish right now
Wish right now, wish right now
I could really use a wish right now (oh)
I, I, I could really use a wish right now
Like, like, like shooting stars (ooh)
I, I, I could really use a wish right now
A wish right now
A wish right now
