Lyrics
Other people prefer to make wishes on starry nights
but not me
I am sure I've used up all my wishes for foolish things
selfishly
I could beg for just one more.... to ask the clock to stop ticking and
I could dream up a reason
to justify
But if that wish were granted...I know it wouldn't change anything
You have planned out your future...there's not a lot of room there ...what a crying shame
There are people who cross all their bridges ahead of time
but not me
I am certain that I was distracted by something else
-love, you see
If I'd seen what was coming...I know it wouldn't change
anything
You had burned all the bridges
in front of me
If I'd known what I know now....I would have wished for a miracle
If I'd seen my world ending, I think I'd write a song called ...What A Crying Shame
Other people might carry on fighting at battle's end
but not me
I can tell that I'll never get back all the love that's lost
What a crying shame!
but not me
I am sure I've used up all my wishes for foolish things
selfishly
I could beg for just one more.... to ask the clock to stop ticking and
I could dream up a reason
to justify
But if that wish were granted...I know it wouldn't change anything
You have planned out your future...there's not a lot of room there ...what a crying shame
There are people who cross all their bridges ahead of time
but not me
I am certain that I was distracted by something else
-love, you see
If I'd seen what was coming...I know it wouldn't change
anything
You had burned all the bridges
in front of me
If I'd known what I know now....I would have wished for a miracle
If I'd seen my world ending, I think I'd write a song called ...What A Crying Shame
Other people might carry on fighting at battle's end
but not me
I can tell that I'll never get back all the love that's lost
What a crying shame!
