Mom’s Wish

在星空下为你盖好被子……
看著你眼底闪烁的小小星系……

Tucking you in beneath the starry sky...
Watching the little galaxies in your eye...
Ooh...
You whisper to the moon so bright and far
Sending your tiny hopes to every star
"I want some ice cream, and a sunny day to play!"
I smile and ask you, "What else, my little ray?"
You scrunch your nose and think so very hard
Sharing the happiest dreams from our little yard
Then suddenly you turn and look at me
With eyes as wide and curious as the sea
"Mommy," you ask, "Do you have wishes too?"
I pause and smile, my heart so full of you
Oh, my sweet girl, my wishes never change
They aren't about the world so wide and strange
I wish you stay safe, wherever you may go
I wish you stay happy, watching you learn and grow
And more than anything from the stars up above...
I wish you are always, always surrounded by love
You listen close, so quiet and so still
As starlight falls upon our windowsill
You didn't know that grown-up wishes hide
The ones we love right safely deep inside
I touch your cheek and brush away your hair
My everyday wish, my everyday prayer
Oh, my sweet girl, my wishes never change
They aren't about the world so wide and strange
I wish you stay safe, wherever you may go
I wish you stay happy, watching you learn and grow
And more than anything from the stars up above...
I wish you are always, always surrounded by love
I place you softly in every wish I make...
Guarding your dreams until the morning awake...
Close your eyes now, my darling, sleep so tight...
Mommy's wishes will hold you through the night...
Safe and happy...
And always loved...
