− | My 11:11 Wish
| + | [[File:Scan 3]] |
− | | + | |
− | | + | |
− | My mom once told me a story
| + | |
− | | + | |
− | About a time that brings us glory
| + | |
− | | + | |
− | A time you can make a wish
| + | |
− | | + | |
− | And it can bring you anything – even a kiss
| + | |
− | | + | |
− | | + | |
− | So, every day at 11:11
| + | |
− | | + | |
− | I wish and I pray
| + | |
− | | + | |
− | To escape the frustrating duality
| + | |
− | | + | |
− | I live each day
| + | |
− | | + | |
− | | + | |
− | | + | |
− | Night then day
| + | |
− | | + | |
− | Cold then warm
| + | |
− | | + | |
− | Winter even in the middle of spring
| + | |
− | | + | |
− | My heart does not know joy.
| + | |
− | | + | |
− | | + | |
− | | + | |
− | My days start cold – they’re always bleak and grey
| + | |
− | | + | |
− | The same routine each and every day
| + | |
− | | + | |
− | My soul is stuck in the darkness of it all
| + | |
− | | + | |
− | And it longs to escape, to run away.
| + | |
− | | + | |
− | | + | |
− | Then nighttime comes and my soul breaks free
| + | |
− | | + | |
− | My 11:11 wish, answering my plea
| + | |
− | | + | |
− | I’m teleported to a whole new world – a world so bright and colourful
| + | |
− | | + | |
− | That I finally start to feel wonderful
| + | |
− | | + | |
− | | + | |
− | This world is light, colour of warmth
| + | |
− | | + | |
− | And makes my smile eternal
| + | |
− | | + | |
− | And for a moment, there is no duality
| + | |
− | | + | |
− | Just one reality –
| + | |
− | | + | |
− | | + | |
− | Spring, all year round.
