Three Wishes Lyrics
We'd be so less fragile if we're made from metal
And our hearts from iron and our minds from steel
If we built an armor for our tender bodies
Could we love each other? Would we strive to feel?
And you want three wishes
One to fly the heavens, one to swim like fishes
And then one you're saving for a rainy day
If your lover ever takes her love away
You say you want to know her like a lover
And undo her damage, she'll be new again
Soon you'll find that if you try to save her
It will renews her anger, you will never win
And you want three wishes
You want never bitter and all delicious
And then one you're saving for a rainy day
If your lover ever takes her love away
You want three wishes
One to fly the heavens, one to swim like fishes
You want never bitter and all delicious
And a clean conscience and all it's blisses
You want one true lover with a thousand kisses
You want soft and gentle and never vicious
And then one you're saving for a rainy day
If your lover ever takes her love away
