If I could make a single wish I know just what it'd be I would not even have to think My choice would be easy There is but one thing that I want For us to be together If I had a second wish I'd wish it was forever If I found a magic djinn Who granted wishes three I'd turn back time to '79 And spend my life with thee |

Sea, I like it [good rhymes]..but i have a question...what is a 'djinn' in the last stanza? Is it a type or a real word? Glad 79 was apparently a good year for u. :-) ~Genea |

A djinn is a genie. I take you have not read the Arabian Knight stories eh? |

"Three wishes are now granted you", the magic djinn stated. "Don't waste them, sir, on wine and song or empty love, elated. A wish for health, a wish for peace, a wish for love that's true. Please use your wishes wisely, sir, that's what I wish for you." |
