You came with all the answers 

To questions I never asked 

But all the while you smiled 

I never saw the mask 

I never saw you coming 

I never even tried 

But every word that I've heard 

Was nothing but a lie 



I trusted in my feelings

I counted on my heart 

But every pulse just made it worse 

And tore it all apart 

Be careful what you wish for 

Don't count upon that star 

When the brightest light goes out

It leaves you in the dark 



Would you believe me just for tonight, just for the last fight 

And would you teach me how to survive when your plane wants to dive 



You better remember, baby, you better not forget 

That the things you wish with heart's desire 

Are never what you get 

Be careful what you wish for

Don't count upon that star 

When the brightest light goes out 

It leaves you in the dark 



Would you believe me just for tonight, just for the last fight 

And would you teach me how to survive when your plane wants to dive 



You better remember, baby, you better not forget 

That the things you wish with heart's desire 

Are never what you get
