Three Hopeful Thoughts - Rilo Kiley

All this talk of your sweet girlfriend

Is starting to pay off

And the charms that you got from travel

Are starting to wear off

And I hope that you smile tonight

Watching the last of your friends arrive

You’ll smile and shake their hands

And the hero that you hoped you’d be

Never seemed to show up

And if I can keep on talking

There won’t be time to give up

And I hope that I drive tonight

Into the last of the great sunrises

I’ll smile and wave my hand

Goodbye

If things don’t work out

Quite the way you planned

It’s almost half past two and

I’ve begun to hate the way you

Smile, so smile

And I hope that you close your eyes

Block out the pain of a thousand lives

I hope that you die tonight

Just close your eyes, there goes the light

Smile, I’ll brave it while you wave your hand

Goodbye
