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?
