Carole Bayer Sager - Don't Wish Too Hard lyrics

(Carole Bayer Sager/Peter Allen)

Don't wish too hard for what you want

Or then you might get it

And then when you get it

You might find you didn't want it at all

And don't go lookin' far love to come

Or then it might find you

And then when it finds you

You might wish that you had never been born

Oh how I wished for you and now you're here

Now I wish that you would disappear

And go away

My poor heart's repeatin'

It can't stand the beatin'

That it's been takin'

I can't tell if you're fakin'

Every time you're making love to me

One day soon I'm gonna change my tune and

Without hesitating

I'll be leaving you waiting

Waiting at the gate for me

Then you'll wish for me and I won't be here

So long darlin'

I'll just disappear

And go away

Oh how I wished for you and now you're here

Now I wish that you would disappear

And go away

Don't wish too hard for what you want or then you might get it

And then when you get it

You might find you didn't want it at all

And

Don't go lookin' for love to come or then it might find you

And then when it finds you

You'll find

What you really wanted and what you really wished for

You never really wanted at all
