Jon Butcher's Wishes

Note: In regards to the sound, CRANK IT UP!!!

Wishes
Jon Butcher

It’s late at night
In the neighborhood
And the thieves
Have all gone to bed
They can hear your heartbeat
In the distance
As you lay down your
Weary head
But don’t worry
‘Cuz the dawn is breakin’
In another room
Halfway around the world
And you can’t waste your life
Wishin’ upon a star

‘Cuz if wishes were horses
Yeah if wishes were horses
Hmmm
If wishes were horses
Then dreamers would ride
Huh
Yes they would

A girl lives her life missin’
Some things
That she never had
Spends too much time
In the unemployment line
You see in her eyes
That it drives her mad
Deep within her constitution
Her pride
And her dignity show through
So she works that dream
‘Cuz it’s all she can do

If wishes were horses
Hmmm
If wishes were horses
She says
If wishes were horses
Then dreamers would ride
Yes they would

Now I’m lookin’
All around me for the answers
And I know
You’re lookin’ hard too
I know what you’re thinkin’
Maybe wishes come true

If wishes were horses
If wishes were horses
I know
If wishes were horses
Then dreamers would ride

Woo hoo hoo

  2. Thanks for stopping by again, my dear Clueless!!! I think I was going through New Orleans the first time I heard this song on the radio, and I instantly fell in love with it. However, it didn't last long on the play lists around the country, and it has been years since I have heard it anywhere. I couldn't remember who sang it, nor even the actual title to the song, but a few weeks ago, our Heavenly Father (finally) led me to the song on YouTube. I am really glad you liked it!
