"The King Of Wishful Thinking" lyrics

"The King Of Wishful Thinking"
(originally by Go West)

Oh
Here we go

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 carved in stone

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 ship's not sinking
And I'll tell myself
I'm over you
'Cause I'm the king of wishful thinking

I refuse to give in to my blues
That's not how it's gonna to be
And I deny the tears in my eyes
I don't want to let you see
No
That you have made a hole in my heart
And now I've got to fool myself

I'll get over you
I know I will
I'll pretend my ship's not sinking
And I'll tell myself
I'm over you
'Cause I'm the king of wishful thinking
I'll get over you
I know I will
I'll pretend my ship's not sinking
And I'll tell myself
I'm over you
'Cause I'm the king of wishful thinking

Oh
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 ship's not sinking
And I'll tell myself
I'm over you
'Cause I'm the king of wishful
Oh
I'll get over you
I know I will
You made a hole in my heart
But I won't shed a tear for you
I'll be the king of wishful thinking
Oh
I am the king of wishful thinking
I am the king of wishful thinking
I'll get over you
