Wishful Thinking Songtext
von Rupa & the April Fishes

I used to dream of a pirate ship
That would take me away from here
Out to the open sea into the biggest blue
Complete with a cast of unsavory crew
Who′d show me things that i shouldn't do

Well, the masts were tall and impressive
The old wood creaked perfectly too
And the full sails held promises of something true
And when we′d get bored of the watery view
We'd simply set our course for the moon


To my surprise as I've grown older
Living these days like dreams with you
I′ve discovered the ship waits inside my chest
And the winds fill its sails on the days I like best
But where it takes me, it takes me alone
To do this strange work i barely know

Now I don′t know when the tides will call me
Away from this sweet life with you
And I wish that i could stay forever
Even though since i was young i knew there was never
Such a thing but this wishful thinking
Keeps our stories rising as our lives are sinking
In time I will kiss you goodbye
On my way and kiss you goodbye
Don't want to go
And I′ll kiss you goodbye
