I don`t need to fall at your feet
Just `cause you cut me to the bone
And I won`t miss the way that you kiss me
We were never carved in stone
If I don`t listen to talk of the town
Maybe I can fool myself
I`ll get over you I know I will
I`ll pretend my ship`s not sinking
And I`ll tell myself I`m over you
`Cause I`m the king of wishful thinking
(King of wishful thinking)
Ooh I am the king of wishful thinking
I refuse to give into my blues
That`s not how it`s gonna be
And I deny the tears in my eyes
I don`t want to let you see
Now that you have made a hole in my heart
And now I`ve got to fool myself
I`ll get over you I know I will
I`ll pretend my ship`s not sinking
And I`ll tell myself I`m over you
`Cause I`m the king of wishful thinking
I`ll get over you I know I will
I`ll pretend my ship`s not sinking ooh-ooh
And I`ll tell myself I`m over you
`Cause I`m the king of wishful thinking
(King of wishful thinking) yeah ooh
If I ever get a chance I`ll get over you
(I know I will)
If I don`t listen to the talk of the town
Maybe I can fool myself
I`ll get over you I know I will
I`ll pretend my ship`s not sinking
And I`ll tell myself I`m over you (I`m over you)
`Cause I`m the king of wishful thinking
(King of wishful thinking)
I am the king of wishful thinking
I`ll get over you I know I will
You made a hole in my heart
But I won`t shed a tear for you
I`ll be the king of wishful thinking
I`ll get over you I know I will
I`ll pretend my heart`s still beating
`Cause I`ve got no more tears for you
I`m the king of wishful thinking
I`ll get over you I know I will
You made a hole in my heart
And I`ll tell myself I`m over you
`Cause I`m the king of wishful thinking
