How Many Wishes? Lyrics

Love's a silly little thing you know

Silly in the way of getting old

If I'm only skin and blood and bones

Will you still love me

Dad's recording memories at stake

Blowing candles off a child's cake

Now there's strangers singing in his place

Strangers who don't love me

I can't wait

For the day

Where my future's far away

Having friends who stay

But I can't wait for a love

That destroys me just because

Ghost of who I was

I'll go

Not so fun doing this all alone

And my mom will call me on the phone

Just to say she loves me

I can't wait

For the day

Where my future's far away

Having friends who stay

But I can't wait

For a love

That destroys me just because

Ghost of who I was

When's the day

Where my future's far away

And it's all okay

'Cause I'm a kid

And it's gold

But there's so much I have sold

Why'm I getting old

When I'm a kid
