I've always been a fan of wishes
The idea that if you ask the universe for something enough times, you'll eventually get it
I used to believe the universe granted wishes
You were my proof
Now I know better
The universe may give, but it loves to take away
You were mine for almost three years
Being with you was a wish come true
And I wished every day to have another with you
Every dandelion, birthday candle, and 11:11
I used all of them on you
Wasted all of them on you
Maybe I was wishing for the wrong thing
I always wished to have you, to be happy with you
I didn't think to wish to keep you
I didn't think you'd want to leave
But she must've made a lot more wishes than me
Cause all of a sudden our promises weren't good enough
And you left me
The one thing you'd promised never to do
Because you'd promised, I didn't think to wish for it
You're with her now
We talk sometimes
But every time we use eachother's names instead of "baby"
We always called each other baby
It's like a thousand little knives in my heart
I wasted so many wishes on you
So no, I don't think wishes come true
And if they do, I know it's only temporary
Because the universe doesn't honor all requests
Because if it did, you'd still be mine. Not hers.
But even though you left my heart bleeding
And shattered the idea that life could be fair
My last dandelion wish, forever, baby.
Is for you to be happy
The universe at least owes me that, I think
