Three Wishes Lyrics

Early monday morning
More like sunday night
I saw three flashes tear across the sky
It came without a warning
A second to react
I let my wishes go too fast - i want them back

Three wishes are not enough
I wish i had one more
I’d wish it all back just like before
Three wishes- i asked too much
I wish i’d known it then
I wish i could take it back again

Every room is winter
Midas touches gold
The castle’s cold without a hand to hold
Sinking in quick silver
Glitter starts to rust
Burning red like sunset in the summer dusk

Three wishes are not enough
I wish i had one more
I’d wish it all back just like before
Three wishes- i asked too much
I wish i’d known it then
I wish i could take it back again

I’m waiting in the wreckage
I watch the sky all night
I wish on every airplane and falling satellite

Three wishes are not enough
I wish i had one more
I’d wish it all back just like before
Three wishes- i asked too much
I wish i’d known it then
I wish i could take it back again

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
