Solomon's Wish

The Wish

Solomon's Wish


If there was a chance 
That You'd appear to me 
If a dream or a trance 
Could draw You near to me 
To hear You offering 
The wish You offered a king 
I'd close my eyes, 
Turn down the lights 
I'd sleep all day, 
I'd sleep all night 
I wish I may, 
I wish I might... 

Is there something that I could do? 
Are You waiting for the right time? 
What did You see in him 
That You don't see in me? 
Will You ever grant again 
The wish You offered a king? 

If a wise man's tragedy 
Could be this foolish man's advice 
And if tonight you would make lightening 
Strike the same place twice 
Be assured, I've thought it through 
What I desire is nothing new ... 

Save wisdom for another day 
Prosperity never liked me anyway 
Only to know You like no man has ever known 
Save wisdom for another day 
Prosperity never liked me anyway 
Just let me know You like no man has ever known 

What did You see in him 
That You don't see in me? 
Will You ever grant again 
The wish You offered a king?
