WISHES IN A JAR

SPINNING AROUND THE MOON

MOVING ACROSS THE SKY

MAKES ME HAPPY, I'M NOT SURE WHY

JUST ANOTHER COMFORT IN THE NIGHT

SOMETHING SURE WHEN THING'S AREN'T RIGHT

SOMETHING CHANGES WHEN I LOOK UP AT THE SKY

I FILL WITH AWE, FROM WHAT I SAW

STARS BLINKING ON SATELLITES FLOATING BY

PULLING ON EMOTIONS, MOVING THE TIDE

DAYDREAMS AND MOONBEAMS, FALLING STARS 

AND LITTLE NOTES WITH WISHES IN A JAR

WOULD BE NO MORE

NO MOON SHINING ON THE SEA 

NO MORE MOONLIT WALKS FOR YOU AND ME

THE WORLDS BURNING FAST YOU CAN'T DENY

WOULD YOU REALLY WANT TO SAY GOODBYE

EARTH LAID TO WASTE BY GREED

FORCES TO GIVE UP, CONCEDE

NOTHING LEFT TO GIVE

THAT YOU'D WANT TO SEE

I'M COMING HOME, WAIT FOR ME

THIS WAS SUCH A BEAUTIFUL PLACE

WHEN WE WERE YOUNG

AND TIME WAS YOUNGER

WE'D LOOK UP AT THE MOON

AND KNOW EVERYTHING WOULD BE ALRIGHT

IT GAVE US COMFORT IN THE NIGHT

HARD TO THINK THAT THIS ALL COULD BE GONE

IN SO MANY WAYS IT'S WRONG

YOU LET-EM ROLL RIGHT THROUGH

WHO'S GONNA SAVE US NOW
