[Verse 1] I learned from my heartbreak and know what to ask for My standards are high, so it’s “yes” or “no more” I wish for a man who’d stand proud by my side Who’d love me, committed, his light be my guide [Pre-Chorus] I wished for a bond where we’re proud of each other I wished for a soft-hearted lover My man should be confident, steady, and kind His strength be of body as much as of mind [Chorus] I asked for impossible things — and I knew My chances to find that were few But just like that, fate gave me you You make my wish true And just like that, fate gave me you [Verse 2] My man should be playful, yet patient and wise A spark in the dark, lift lows up to highs In you I found someone who values my world As I cherish yours — our stories unfurled [Pre-Chorus] In you I found optimism, appreciation And joy while you’re waiting with me at the station You’re richest in cunning, intelligence, wisdom You question and challenge the system [Chorus] I asked for impossible things — and I knew My chances to find that were few But just like that, fate gave me you You make my wish true And just like that, fate gave me you [Bridge] You make me feel stronger, grow tall like the trees With you I’ll cross oceans and travel the seas You’re proud of me, treasure me, more than yourself To spare me from heartache, you put your heart on the shelf [Chorus] I asked for impossible things — that I knew And then I found you You make my wish true And just like that, fate gave me you [Outro] I learned from my past and I knew what to ask for My standards are high, so it’s you or “no more” It’s you
