This Is What I Wished For

Telehope

Compositor: Adolph Goetz / Ben Malson / James Malson

Remember that old drafty house
In Bedford Falls?
The memories are black and white
But we had it all

They say that youth is always wasted on the wrong kids
I should’ve taken the chance when I had it
I was talking you to death
When I should’ve kissed you instead

I’ll give you the Moon, anything you want
Throw a lasso around it, and pull it down
It’s a wonderful life, but I can give you more
But you said this is what you wished for

I’d travel the world, but what I need is right here
I don’t always say it, but I love you, dear
I'm only passing by, I just came in to get warm
'Cause this is what I wished for

Remember that one Christmas Eve
When I tried to leave
I wished that I was never born
But you showed me a different world

Sometimes I forget just what we had
I wanna get back, wanna live again
Show me the way
God, show me the way

We’re singing Buffalo Girls on a Friday night
Won’t you come out tonight and dance by the light of the Moon?
Just me and you

I’ll give you the Moon, anything you want
Throw a lasso around it, and pull it down
It’s a wonderful life, but I can give you more
But you said this is what you wished for

I’d travel the world, but what I need is right here
I don’t always say it, but I love you, dear
I'm only passing by, I just came in to get warm
'Cause this is what I wished for

Yeah, this is what I wished for
This is what I wished for

I’ll give you the Moon, anything you want
Throw a lasso around it, and pull it down
It’s a wonderful life, I couldn’t ask for more
'Cause this is what we wished for
