Lyrics

The King Of Wishful Thinking

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

I don't need to fall at your feet

Just cause you cut me to the bone

And I won't miss the way that you kiss me

We were never gone dead strong

And If I don't listen to the talk of the town

Then maybe I can fool myself

I'll get over you I know I will

I'll pretend my ships not sinking

And I'll tell myself I'm over you

Because I am the king of wishful thinking

Because I am the king of wishful thinking

I refuse to convince you my bruise

That's not how its gonna be

And I deny the tears in my eyes

I don't wanna let you see, no

That you had made a whole in my heart

And now I've got to fool myself

I'll get over you I know I will

I'll pretend my ships not sinking

And I'll tell myself I'm over you

Because I am the king of wishful thinking

I'll get over you I know I will

I'll pretend my ships not sinking

And I'll tell myself I'm over you

Because I'm the king of wishful thinking

If I don't listen to the talk of the town

Then maybe I can fool myself

I'll get over you I know I will

I'll pretend my ships not sinking

And I'll tell myself I'm over you

Because I'm the king of wishful thinking

I am the king of wishful thinking

I'll get over you I know I will

You made a whole in my heart

But I won't shed a tear for you

I'll be the king of wishful thinking

(I'll be the king of wishful)

I'll get over you I know I will

I'll pretend my hearts still beating

Cause I've got no more tears for you

I am the king of wishful thinking

(king of wishful thinking) no
