The Pierces - Three Wishes

We'd be so less fragile

If we're made from metal

And our hearts from iron

And our minds from steel

And if we built an army

Full of tender bodies

Could we love each other

Would we stop to feel

And you want three wishes:

One to fly the heavens

One to swim like fishes

And then one you're saving for a rainy day

If your lover ever takes her love away

You say you want to know her like a lover

And undo her damage, she'll be new again

Soon you'll find that if you try to save her

It will lose her anger

You will never win

And you want three wishes:

You want never bitter

And all delicious

And then one you're saving for a rainy day

If your lover ever takes her love away

You want three wishes:

One to fly the heavens

One to swim like fishes

You want never bitter

And all delicious

And a clean conscience

And all it's blisses

You want one true lover with a thousand kisses

You want soft and gentle and never vicious

And then one you're saving for a rainy day

If your lover ever takes her love away
