Wishful Thinking Lyrics by Mental Notes

2021

[Intro]

[Chorus]
Just chew me up and spit me out
You know I didn’t have a choice
Where were you when I needed you
You didn’t even hear my voice

[Verse 1]
And that’s too bad
Forget what you had
Just move on, don’t look back anymore

[Verse 2]
But what you think of me
I’ll never know (never know)
Seems like everyone’s the same
So I’ll just tell myself
It’s not that bad (not that bad)
Who am I trying to fool this time

[Chorus]
It took me so long to find out
I wasn’t missing all that much
Where was this feeling all my life
Hidden somewhere deep inside
And the day will come
When all the pain and sorrow
Will wash away
It’s a new beginning tomorrow

[Bridge]
So take
Take it slow
Take as long as you want while you can
And then
When it’s gone
You have no one but yourself in the end

[Chorus]
Now that I’m where I need to be
It doesn’t feel quite the same
Rather go back to the misery
To make the most of what remains

[Outro]
