Wishful Thinking Lyrics

Everybody's always telling you what you should and shouldn't do in the music industry

I don't know, I'm kind of tired of listening to the rules that aren't even being written down anywhere

It's just to do what he or she says and hope for the best

But really, this whole time I just enjoy writing songs. I have my whole life

I don't see a reason why I can't just press record and tell everybody how I feel and play a few chords and release it

So, I don't know. Maybe I'm going to try it that way for a little while and just

Maybe you'll get some songs that you wouldn't have gotten had I made the trip to Nashville and been told no

It's a brand new one I wrote. It doesn't even have a name

I know it's not easy to feel like this

You're tired of being hurt

And now your pissed

You wear your anger on your sleeve

Where your heart belongs

Your cry for help is why you did what you did

You said what you said, now you're too far gone

Somebody's got to pick up the pieces and right the wrongs

If rain can't fall on a sunny day, maybe tears can dry and go away

Here's to wishful thinking and moving on

And moving on

I'm sitting on the floor with your name on my lips while a cigarette burns my fingertips

This feels all too familiar. Maybe it's me

And tough love's what I grew up on. I heard I love you once, but now they're gone

My hero barely knows my name. His true love's in heaven

I've heard church bells, I've held wedding rings. None mine, but still I hope for spring

And when the daises come, I hope it brings the sun

If rain can't fall on a sunny day, maybe tears can dry and go away

Here's to wishful thinking and moving on

And moving on

Here's to wishful thinking and moving on

And moving on

If rain can't fall on a sunny day, maybe tears can dry and go away

Here's to wishful thinking and moving on

I've heard church bells, I've held wedding rings. None mine, but still I hope for spring

And when the daises come, I hope it brings the sun

If rain can't fall on a sunny day, maybe tears can dry and go away

Here's to wishful thinking and moving on

Here's to wishful thinking and moving on

Yeah, maybe I'll call it wishful thinking
