"The Wishbone" lyrics

The Veils Lyrics

"The Wishbone"

I said I wanted summer and the morning brought the sun
I said I need a lover and by the next night I had one
I said I wanted a hurricane and the wind blew hard and the wind blew strong

Careful what you wish for
Tearing back the wishbone
Careful what you wish for
Tearing back the wishbone

I wished to live forever but ain't that hard for you and me
There ain't no heart at the centre of the earth far as I can see
Now I think it's time, babe, that you lay your head in the bed you've made

Careful what you wish for
Tearing back the wishbone
Careful what you wish for
Tearing back the wishbone
(Careful what you wish for)
(Tearing back the wishbone)
