Lyrics for Wish Fulfillment
I see your wishes on the wall That's all right with me I see you run to make a call Hoping that there's someone free Your life and my life, they don't touch at all And that's no way to be We've never seemed so far What's real, what's true? I ain't turning my back on you Where're you goin', where've you been? Making wishes, watching dreams It might be simple, it might be true I might be overwhelmed by you You might be empty The way your eyes just look right through It's such a mess now anyway Wish fulfillment every day I don't believe you Now I can't hear a word you say I see you shaking in the light Reading the headline news The others, they're not quite so bright You want them to choose you I could almost see your face tonight Singing simple rhythm and blues You'll always be a star Shake it, baby, come on and scream Did I see your face in a magazine Your doubt, it leaves me sore I can't stand it anymore It's my favorite shot of you You look so pretty, your eyes were true I'm still on your side In spite of everything you do We're only blood on light on life New pretty pictures every night Come wish beside me Don't you know you know what's right
