lyrics

Wanting to know you with all of my heart
Feels so strange to be so far apart
Guess you are just playing hard
So much to tell you, I want to be true
I’ll be waiting over here for you
Knowing that you’re coming through

So why is it that I can wait till I’m old
You’ll never come and that isn’t my fault
Why do I have to believe my own lies
Nobody else does and I’m not surprised

Wishful thinking, in the end you will be mine
Wishful thinking, living the dream I make, feeling fine

You never call me but I understand
Everybody wants to be your friend
But you’ll call me in the end
Once you take time for me you’ll know I’m right
I’m convinced you need me by your side
Patiently I will abide

So how long it takes for you to see what I am
In my own world we’ll be happier than
Everyone else, they just don’t have a clue
There’s nothing better for me and for you

Wishful thinking, in the end you will be mine
Wishful thinking, living the dream I make, feeling fine

Thinking positive gets me what I want
There’s only one thing that I really do want
I know you’ll come to me I’ve read it in the books
and I’ve seen it in The Secret; my wish comes true

Wishful thinking, in the end you will be mine
Wishful thinking, living the dream I make, feeling fine
