lyrics

My Wish for You

May you always be courageous – that is my wish for you
A little bit outrageous – that is my wish for you
May you grow up to be strong
Know right from wrong
And may you find joy along the way

May you rise like the morning sun
And fly – enjoy being young
Let your dreams be your destiny
And may you find your heart’s desire
Wherever it may be
Ooooh – my wish for you

May you always show compassion – that is my wish for you
Follow your own fashion – that is my wish for you
May you learn how to forgive
Live and let live
And may you find joy along the way

May you rise like the morning sun
And fly – enjoy being young
Let your dreams be your destiny
And may you find your heart’s desire
Whatever it may be
Ooooh – my wish for you

In you I see the miracle
The mystery
The magic of this world
All shining brightly through the eyes
Of a little baby girl

Every day a work of art
Always living from the heart
And may you find joy along the way

May you rise like the morning sun
And fly – enjoy being young
Let your dreams be your destiny
And may you find your heart’s desire
Wherever it may be
Ooooh – my wish for you
Ooooh – my wish for you
That is my wish
