We Wished on a Shooting Star

We Wished on a Shooting Star

We wished on a shooting star

you held my hand

the night air was warm

and the world felt small around us

I did not speak my wish

you did not speak yours

but I saw it in your eyes

and you saw it in mine

The star burned across the dark

fast and bright

like it was made for us alone

We did not know if it would work

but we kissed

and the moment felt certain

like it already had

Now when I see the night sky

I look for another

but there will never be one

that belongs to us

the way that one did

For I wished for your love

and now it burns in me

wild and deep

a fire that no time can cool

and no darkness can hide
