Lyrics
Wishes And Stars
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Everyone seems so certain
Everyone knows who they are
Everyone's got a mother and a father
They all seem so sure they're going far
They all got more friends than they can use
Except me cause I'm a fool
I'm as simple as a bee
As a melody in c
But it doesn't matter
There are more wishes than stars
Every guest
So pleased with themselves
They're brimming with success
Their whole life's been blessed
But it doesn't matter
Everyone's been on a holiday in the sun
Or they just got back from one
All they do is just have fun
They all got more friends than they can use
Except me cause I'm a fool
I'm as simple as a bee
As a melody in c
But it doesn't matter
There are more wishes than stars
I'm not too certain about many things
I'm not too sure who I am
I ain't got no mother and I ain't got no father
I ain't got no girlfriend to hold my hand
I'm slow like the trees when they grow
I'm sluggish like the ocean when it moves
I'm plain like water or like rain
But I shouldn't complain cause it doesn't matter
There are more wishes than stars
More wishes than stars
