Title: One Wish

What would *YOU* wish for ... if *YOU* had found that genie in a bottle?!
-steale


Story Behind the Song:
As I laid in bed on a Saturday morning
my 5 year old daughter crawled in next
to me. She asked me, "If you could have one wish, daddy, what would it be?" ... I thought about her mom ...
The song was written that same day.
-steale

1ST-VERSE:
I walked along the ocean
Like a thousand times before
Lost in thoughts of you
I noticed something on the shore
It was a bottle made of gold
And when I wiped the away the sand
Towering before me
Stood the image of a man

2ND-VERSE
He said that I had set him free
And fate had just smiled down on me
One and only one wish now was mine
All the riches of the world, you see
Were at my beckon call
Whatever I decide, yeah
I would have it all


1ST-CHORUS:
Then suddenly it was clear to me
No decision to be made
If one and only one wish would come true,
Then I wish that I could stop loving you.


3RD-VERSE:
He said I am the greatest
That has ever walked this land
I've made kings, queens and history
Ever since the dawn of man
Then his eyes filled with sadness
As he looked down towards the sand
And said, "Though I am the greatest of them all..."

2ND-CHORUS:
There is one thing I confess to you
That even such as I can't do
There's one wish even I can't make come true
He said he couldn't stop my heart from loving you.


BRIDGE:
Somethings in this old world
Are forever cast in stone
So my memories and love for you
Are better left alone

Though the stars burn out,
the earth stand still
And the sun refuse to shine
This pain that lives inside of me
Is with me for all time

(Instumental)

1ST-CHORUS:
