Lyrics

Careful What You Wish For Ac 2003

Standin' on a corner on a hot sunny
Not much happenin' or comin' my way
Mindin' my own business
What did I see?
The world goin' crazy all around me

People doin' things to stand out from the crowd
Piercing their tongues
Talkin' too loud
Buyin' fancy cars
Dressin' to the nines
Livin' the high life
Havin' a great old time

The more they differ
The more they're the same
Flashin' cash becomes a big old game
What am I gonna do
That hasn't been done
My moment of fame, spot in the sun

Careful what you wish for
Might come to you
What you ask for
Could happen too
What you dream
Dreams come true
Life throws a curve at you

Should I do somthin' wild
Make a big noise
Spend Saturday night drinkin' with the boys
Get myself arrested
Do some time
Or leave all this craziness behind

Careful what you wish for
Might come to you
What you ask for
Could happen too
What you dream
Dreams come true

Need to cut loose, make a change
Down a road that's not the same
Find someone to believe in me
Not just playin' a game.

There I was, feelin' blue
People all around, I saw you
Our eyes met, we both knew
Livin' their life just wouldn't do
Love each other, forget the rest
With you in my arms, we'll do our best
Happiness will come to you and me
Sun will shine on us for eternity

Got what I wished for
I found you
What I asked for
Happened to
I dreamed
My dreams came true
Those curves look good on you
Down a carefree road for two
