Wishlist Songtext

von Eddie Vedder

I wish I was a neutron bomb for once I would never go off
I wish I was a sacrifice that somehow still lived on
I wish I was a sentimental ornament you hung on

The Christmas tree I wish I was the star that went on top
I wish I was the evidence I wish I was the sound
For fifty million hands upraised and open towards the sky

I wish I was a sailor with someone who waited for me
I wish I was as fortunate as fortunate as me
I wish I was a evidence and all the news was good
I wish I was the full moon shining off your Camaro's hood

I wish I was a living being at home behind the sun
I wish I was the souvenir you kept your house key on
I wish I was the pedal brake that you depended on
I wish I was the verb 'to trust' and never let you down
