  • I hope the days come easy and the moments pass slow
    And each road leads you where you wanna go
    And if you're faced with a choice, and you have to choose
    I hope you choose the one that means the most to you
    And if one door opens to another door closed
    I hope you keep on walkin' 'til you find the window
    If it's cold outside, show the world the warmth of your smile
    But more than anything, more than anything

    My wish, for you, is that this life becomes all that you want it to
    Your dreams stay big, your worries stay small
    You never need to carry more than you can hold
    And while you're out there getting where you're getting to
    I hope you know somebody loves you, and wants the same things too
    Yeah, this, is my wish

    I hope you never look back, but you never forget
    All the ones who love you, in the place you live
    I hope you always forgive, and you never regret
    And you help somebody every chance you get
    Oh, you find God's grace, in every mistake
    And always give more than you take
    But more than anything, yeah, more than anything

    My wish, for you, is that this life becomes all that you want it to
    Your dreams stay big, your worries stay small
    You never need to carry more than you can hold
    And while you're out there getting where you're getting to
    I hope you know somebody loves you, and wants the same things too
    Yeah, this, is my wish
    Yeah, yeah

    My wish, for you, is that this life becomes all that you want it to
    Your dreams stay big, your worries stay small
    You never need to carry more than you can hold
    And while you're out there getting where you're getting to
    I hope you know somebody loves you, and wants the same things too
    Yeah, this, is my wish (my wish, for you)

    This is my wish (my wish, for you)
    I hope you know somebody loves you (my wish, for you)
    May all your dreams stay big (my wish, for you) Writer/s: Jeffrey Allen Steele, Stephen Paul Robson

  • Ginny from Santa Rosa, Ca.This is the song my son and I danced to at his wedding in 2015. This will song will always be in my heart.
  • Kathy from Saipan, NmiThank you for this song, it's heartwarming and an expression of true parents' love
  • Camille from Toronto, OhThe lyrics of “My Wish” run through the hearts of many parents when they think of their children as they grow into adulthood. That Rascal Flatts lend their incredible voices to the song raises it to another level. As it is a perfect graduation song, this year, 2020, my heart goes out to all the high school graduates and college graduates who got cheated out of the final months of their senior year and traditional graduation ceremonies by forces beyond their control. Life eventually moves forward; still, my heart goes out to each of you! This song is for you!
