          A#m             C#
When I'm blowing out the candles
         A#m              C#
And when people start to sing
       A#m              C#
I will always cross my fingers tight
    A#m           C#
I remember everything

Chorus:
      F#              A#m
But I always make my wishes
         C#               Fm
For the same thing every time
      F#             C#
If I live to be one hundred
     D#m7         C#  D#m7 C# G#
If I ever get it right

My mind is racing with thoughts
And the songs that never end
And I prayed to God last night
Just before I went to bed

Chorus:
Even now I can't remember
A single word He said
If I live to be one hundred
If I get it through my head
I always think about you
And I have to close my eyes
If I live to be one hundred
Will I ever cross your mind?

When you close your eyes at night
And you rise above your life
Do you notice there an empty space
Where I wasn't by your side?

Chorus:
Because I always dream about you
Every time I close my eyes
If I live to be one hundred
Will I ever cross your mind?
I always make my wishes
For same thing every time
If I live to be one hundred
Will I ever cross your mind?
