lyrics

How many miles apart do we stand?
How many oceans, how many acres of dry land?
How many hours in a day do you spend
Thinking of me
I wish I knew, I wish I knew

How many loves have you had since?
How many kisses have touched your lips?
And do you find that when they leave
Your mind comes wandering to me
I wish I knew, I wish I knew

A lifetime of shooting stars
My wishes are always the same
Even when I’m old and gray
I’ll tell each one your name

How many years have passed since we spoke?
How many more will pass before you know?
How many nights I’ve lain awake praying to
Dream of your face
I wish you knew, I wish you knew

A lifetime of shooting stars
My wishes are always the same
Even when I’m old and gray
I’ll tell each one your name

In every wishing well
I’ll tell this sad, sad tune
Even when I’m old and gray I’d gladly waste
Every last wish on you

I wonder what you’re doing
I’m imagining your hands are holding mine
And it would all be worth it
If you looked into my eyes, into my eyes

A lifetime of shooting stars
My wishes are always the same
Even when I’m old and gray
I’ll tell each one your name

In every wishing well
I’ll tell this sad, sad tune
Even when I’m old and gray I’d gladly waste
Every last wish on you
