I stole your wishes

On your birthday
Guess who blew the candles out
While you were sleeping
I plucked a lash from your brow

It wasn't mine for the taking
But i took it just the same
For i stole your wishes darling

In the garden
I picked you a fragrant rose
To distract you for on the ground grew a four-leaf clove

I bent down and looked over
And wished with all my heart

I stole your wishes
I wished for all your kisses
I stole your wishes darling

We went dancing underneath the evening sky
I spied a falling star
But i never let it catch your eye

I didn't ask for a miracle
I didn't ask for the moon
No i, i stole your wishes
I wished for all your kisses
I stole your wishes
And they all came true
