Wishful Thinking Lyrics - 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 town 

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 realize 

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 

Gets me over 

It gets me over, yeah, oh 

It gets me over 

It gets me over, yeah
