Wishful Thinking

from Black Diamond by The Resonators

lyrics

How was I supposed to know
it was time to let it go
Somewhere you gave up the dream well I
guess that wasn't up to me
Looks like I've been left on my own with
nothing left to show

Cause I've always been a little slow
but this looks like a new low
Welcome to the end of the line oh please
wish me better luck next time
They can all say what they want
I'm never gonna stop

I won't drag them down
This might be all just Wishful Thinking
But I think I will stick around
I won't ever quits
This might be all just Wishful Thinking,
But I think they can't handle this

I could use a fresh new start
got losing down to an art
This could be my only chance to
prove to myself I won't come last
So if that is your best shot
man you better make it count

Don't know what they're in for this time
Cause they're not putting up a fight
I'm gonna make 'em see the light

Judge and jury set me free
give me strength to just believe
My whole life always told me that there's
just some things I could never be well they
Haven't seen anything yet I’m gonna
show 'em something they won't forget
