[Intro — Female, soft piano] A silver streak split the summer sky. [Male] I shut my eyes, but you asked me why. [Verse 1 — Female] I used to wish for a love that would stay, A hand in the dark when the stars slipped away. I made little maps of the moonlit blue, Then missed every meteor looking for you. [Male] I chased bright signs down a boulevard, Kept my heart held close, kept my hopes on guard. Then you laughed at the rain in your midnight shoes, And the whole wide world felt warm and new. [Pre-Chorus — alternating] [Female] There’s a shooting star—go on, make your plea. [Male] I’ve got one wish left, but you’re here with me. [Female] What if it fades before it comes true? [Male] Then let it fly. I already found you. [Chorus — together] I saved my wish for a night like this, For a slow sweet dance and a stolen kiss. One bright spark crossed a velvet sky— I didn’t close my eyes this time. Let the stars streak past, let the night move on; We’ve got the porch light and our favorite song. I had one wish left, and then I met you— Now all I want is to make yours come true. [Verse 2 — Male] When your mind makes storms out of small mistakes, I’ll sit beside you till the morning breaks. We can sort what happened from what we fear, Take one deep breath. I’m staying here. [Female] When your brave face breaks and the day runs long, You can lean on me; you don’t have to be strong. We’ll make small plans when the road feels wide, One step, two hearts, walking side by side. [Pre-Chorus — alternating] [Male] There’s another star—quick, close your eyes. [Female] I’d rather watch that wonder shine. [Male] You sure you don’t want to wish for more? [Female] We can want more, love. Come dance on the porch. [Final Chorus — together, soaring strings] We saved our wishes for a night like this, For a slow sweet dance and a stolen kiss. Bright stars race through a velvet sky— We keep our hands held tight this time. Let the stars streak past, let the night move on; We’ve got the porch light and our favorite song. We had one wish left, and then love came through— Now I’ll spend my days making wishes with you. [Outro — Female / Male] [Female] Look up—the last little light is gone. [Male] Then stay right here till the morning comes.
