Wishful Thinking

(album: Smoke Signals - 1986)

The night's electric
When I'm dancing close to you
It's just like magic
A feeling too good to be true
And when I kiss you
Girl, it feels so wonderful
You say you love me
It's like some kind of miracle

Then I realize
I'm just a victim of imagination

It's only wishful thinking
Just a fantasy, a sweet illusion
It's only wishful thinking
And though you don't love me
I can't help dreaming

You're my obsession
But you don't even know I'm there
I'm lost inside this
Imaginary love affair, hey
Guess I should give up
But then again you never know
So I keep dreaming
About you when I should let go

It feels so real
When I'm caught up in this fascination

It's only wishful thinking
Just a fantasy, a sweet illusion
It's only wishful thinking, baby
And though you don't love me
I can't help dreaming
It's only wishful thinking
(Only wishful)
Just a fantasy, you love me too, girl
It's only wishful thinking, alright
Wishing you loved me is all I do, girl

Hey, then I realize
I'm just a victim of imagination

It's only wishful thinking
Just a fantasy, a sweet illusion
It's only wishful thinking, baby
And though you don't love me
I can't help dreaming, oh, yeah
It's only wishful thinking, baby
Just a fantasy, you love me too, girl
It's only wishful thinking
Wishing you loved me is all I do, girl...
