Wishful Thinking - Duncan Sheik

Listen to the waves

Everything communicates

Will it ever be

Anything more than wishful thinking?

Oh no, there you go

Looked away and missed the show

How much wasted time will you survive?

Feel the blades of grass

How it brings you back

It will always be

Only as green

As you can see

Oh no, there you go

Looked away and missed the show

How much wasted time will you survive?

Oh yeah, fooled again

I don’t know how and I don’t know when

Not much else to blame but wishful thinking

Little breakdowns in coastal towns

They come suddenly

Crashing over you

They come easily

I’m falling through the skies

And frozen places

Oh no, there you go

Looked away and missed the show

How much wasted time will you survive?

Oh yeah, fooled again

I don’t know how and I don’t know when

Not much else to blame but wishful thinking

And I try to realise that I needn’t look any further

The whole of the universe is plain to see

And I try not to rely on another world or the future

The whole of the universe is a mystery

And it gets me over

It gets me over you, ohhh

And it gets me over

It gets me over you
