Lyrics
Be Careful What You Wish For
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.
Be careful what you wish for, you will never ever know
Don't try to change a stranger, just better to let 'em go
So be careful what you wish for, they will never ever know
Don't try to change a stranger, you better let 'em go
The moment I met you, I knew it was right
We read all the same books, and listen to light
I'm stuck in the moment, I'm caught in the rain
I think that I like it, the pleasure and pain
We all need love, you understand, I know you can
But sometimes in life, there is no plan!
Be careful what you wish for, you will never ever know
Don't try to change a stranger, just better to let 'em go
So be careful what you wish for, they will never ever know
Don't try to change a stranger, you better let 'em go
Because all of the dreams you had
Can so quickly turn wrong and bad
You might believe in a better world
But you know that it's gonna hurt
You tell me your secrets, then I tell you mine
But something is wrong now, did we cross the line
The streets are all empty, for know that I know
That all I wanted, was someone to hold
We all need love, you understand, I know you can
But sometimes in life, there is no plan!
Be careful what you wish for, you will never ever know
Don't try to change a stranger, just better to let 'em go
So be careful what you wish for, they will never ever know
Don't try to change a stranger, you better let 'em go
Because all of the dreams you had
Can so quickly turn wrong and bad
You might believe in a better world
But you know that it's gonna hurt
Sometimes in life
You find someone
Who you know is the right one for you
But then you find out that things aren't quite what they seem
All of a sudden your perfect world gets torn apart
And your heart is broken in two
But after all the pain and sadness you
Still find that you can't let go, even though you want to
Be careful what you wish for, you will never ever know
Don't try to change a stranger, just better to let 'em go
So be careful what you wish for, they will never ever know
Don't try to change a stranger, you better let 'em go
Because all of the dreams you had
Can so quickly turn wrong and bad
You might believe in a better world
But you know that it's gonna hurt
