These Wishes

(album: Someday Maybe - 1996)

After 3 years ya know I'd die for you
But I wouldn't cross the street to shake your hand
If it turns out that I get nine lives
I'd swear in 3 years you took 10

Our kisses don't seem that right anymore
It seems we're living outta fear
And out love is like a foggy vacation
And I'm wishing you were clear

Well I'm wishing on my dear
That these devils were not here
If you would listen you could here
I'm still waiting on my dear
For your love...your love
Your love...your love

Well I fed the cats and
I put out the trash
To the big can in the back
And the apartment we shared next to the neighbor
Who cared a little too much for us

Well ya worked out the paper
While I sat home in bed
Wishing all the wishes I could wish

Seems like we love everything we could not have
And we hate everything that we need

Well I'm wishing on my dear
That these devils were not here
If you would listen you could here
I'm still waiting on my dear
For your love...your love
Your love...your love

If it turns out that I get nine lives
I'd swear in 3 years you took 10

Our kisses don't seem that right anymore
It seems we're living outta fear
And out love is like a foggy vacation
And I'm wishing you were clear

Well I'm wishing on my dear
That these devils were not here
If you would listen you could here
I'm still waiting on my dear
For your love...your love
Your love...your love
