Sometimes Wishes Come True

Sometimes wishes come true but not in times like these
It won't help me to beg you and get down on my knees
There's no birthday candles or magic lanterns to rub
I'd have more luck with leprechauns in St Patrick's Pub

You're the only one who can make this one come true
I don't know black magic from white, but it's made me blue
You're a charming sorceress with a potion inside your heart
Your witchcraft has left me breathless and falling apart

Had I known your spell was just a trick of the mind
Could I have cast it out before falling left me blind?
I didn't realize fooling my heart was all a stratagem
Sometimes wishes come true but this is not one of them
