lyrics

If you could wish for anything, what would you wish for:
A phone call from a lost friend? Or to settle up a score?
Or is right now just perfect for you, have you never lost a thing?

Temper me like glass and make me stronger than before
Clearer than a cloudy day and muscled like a charlie horse
Holding your finger down on the bow, have you never lost the string?

Take a little time off

If you could wish for anything, what would you wish for:
A letter in the mailbox? Or a do-over for waging war?
Empty your pockets, give it a rest. Have you never failed the test?

I wish that there were no goodbyes, I wish that no one ever died
I wish that we could get together, not today, but not not-ever

Wish I could dance with you
Wish I could dance with you!

Take a little time off
Take it easy on yourself
