Squirrel Nut Zippers - Wished For You Lyrics

Squirrel Nut Zippers Lyrics

"Wished For You"

I wished on a star
Send me down a lover
Don't want any other kind of love
Wished on a star
Save my heart from sadness
Save my mind from madness from afar

Used to sit and cry all day
Wonder why my love would fade
Used to while away the hours
Cannot go on
Cannot go on
Without you

Now I don't do the things I used to do
Ever since the day I wished for you

Used to sit and cry all day
Wonder why my love would fade
Used to while away the hours
Cannot go on
Cannot go on
Without you

Now I don't do the things I used to do
Ever since the day I wished for you
Ever since the day I wished for you
