Wishing Lyrics

Wishing that things were other than they are

Oh that never got me too far

Wishing that things were other than they are

Is just waiting under your star

Oh you were never the one just having fun

That black bandana you tied round my eyes

You stopped me thinking too full of feeling

Failed to see I was barely alive

I starved in your gaze it was never enough

You knew how to tie me in your knots rough

How to get me lost didn't see the cost

Watching and waiting for you to seal my fate

You kept me

Wishing that things were other than they are

Oh that never got me so far

Wishing that things were other than they are

Is just waiting under your star

Never felt so deep never fell so hard

Must be love, no? Or so says the bard

My thoughts ran dark then they drained away

Kept my heart in my gut and it couldn't get enough

It couldn't get enough

Craved you even when you smothered me

Too hard too light too brief too long

I wrote you a poem but you laughed at me

Cruel but utterly mine and you kept me

Wishing that things were other than they are

Oh that never got me too far

Wishing that things were other than they are

Is just waiting under your star

Got me fixing got me cooking

Got me wanting to meet your mama

Put a ring on you tie you down

Oh! My turn at the bandana now

Now you owe me my life's prize

Got you begging for one more night

Got you knowing fright

Get out of my sight

So tight no light between us

Make you make me your only lover your turn now

You're wishing that things were other than they are

Wishing that things were other than they are

Oh that never got me too far

Wishing that things were other than they are

Is just waiting under your star

Wishing that things were other than they are

Oh that never got me too far

Wishing that things were other than they are

Is just waiting under your star
