Don't be fooled by the title. This is another of those country love gone wrong songs.
Wishes Come True
The young girl eyes the evening sky
Searching for that brightest light
Wishing for her dream come true
To be her shining knight
A warrior to rescue her
From the pain she holds inside
Someone who can love her though
The truth she has to hide
And the young man seeks eternal love
To make his world seem right
A beauty who'll believe in him
And make his future bright
A blonde haired to girl hold him
And catch him when he slides
Somebody to come home to
And give him back his pride
Like Mama often told me
The sky ain't always blue
And be careful what you wish for
'Cause sometimes they come true
And they want to travel back in time
Back to thier wedding night
When love was young and beautiful
Now all they do is fight
The promises she'd broken
The many times he'd lied
Wishes maybe do come true
If only they had tried
Like Mama often told me
The sky ain't always blue
And be careful what you wish for
'Cause sometimes they come true

Apart from the fact you missed a couple of words out here and there.....eager beaver!!!.......nothing at all to pick fault with.......
A warrior the rescue her ....should that read "to rescue her".......?
Last chorus........
Like Mama often told me
The sky ain't always blue
And be careful what you
'Cause sometimes they come true
Think you missed out "wish for" at the end of the 3rd line..........
Even so, got the sense of it, and yeah, 'nother goodie from the celt!!!!

Thanks Vic,
This one came together kind of quickly. I should of taken the time to proof read. I shall concider myself reprimanded. I WISH I could say it won't happen again but I'm sure it will.

Hey Celt,
I don't have much to add to Vic's comments. Apart from some nit-picky grammatical oversights, everything works wonderfully. It's a well structured piece, that flows very easily, and works with any number of styles. A pleasure to read.

Hi Celt
This is a really good song - definite country vein, in line with everyone else I love it. (if you listen hard enough you might just hear my applause).
Great stuff
