Don't Wish Too Hard (Live/1977) - Peter Allen

Don't wish too hard for what you want

Or then you might get it

And then when you get it

Then you might wish you never got it all

And don't go lookin' for love to come

Or then it might find you

(Then it might find you)

And then when it finds you

Then you might wish that you had never been born

How I wished for you and now you're here

Now I wish that I could disappear and go away

Oh, baby, 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

And you'll find that what you really wanted

And what you end up getting

You never really wanted at all

Oh baby, how you'll wish for me and I won't be there

So long darlin', I'll just disappear and go away

Wish too hard, don't wish too hard

Don't wish too hard

You'll find, what you really wanted

And what you end up getting

You never really wanted at all

How I wished for you and now you're here

Now I wish that I could disappear and go away

Don't, don't wish too hard

(Wish too hard)

Don't, don't keep looking

Don't wish too hard, don't keep looking

Don't wish too hard for love to come

And then you'll find, what you really wanted

And what you end up getting

You never really wanted at all

(Don't wish too hard)

Don't wish too hard, don't wish too hard

Don't wish too hard, don't wish too hard

Don't wish too hard
