0:17I see your wishes on the wall
0:23That's all right with me
0:26I see you run to make a call
0:31Hoping that there's someone free
0:34Your life and my life they don't touch at all
0:39That's no way to be
0:43We've never seemed so far
0:50What's real what is true
0:54I ain't turning my back on you
0:57Where're you goin' where've you been
1:02Making wishes watching dreams
1:05It might be simple it might be true
1:09I might be overwhelmed by you
1:13You might be empty
1:15The way your eyes just look right through
1:21It's such a mess now anyway
1:25Wish fulfillment every day
1:29I don't believe you
1:31Now I can't hear a word you say
1:41I see you shaking in the light
1:47Reading the headline news
1:51The others they're not quite so bright
1:55We want them to choose you
1:59I could almost see your face tonight
2:03Singing simple rhythm and blues
2:07You'll always be a star
2:14Shake it baby come on scream
2:18Just see your face in a magazine
2:22Don't doubt it leaves Chris sore
2:26I can't stand it anymore
2:30It's my favorite shot of you
2:33You look so pretty your eyes were true
2:37I'm still on your side
2:40In spite of everything you do
2:45We're only blood on blood on life
2:49You paint me pictures every night
2:53Come wish beside me
2:56Don't you know you know what's right
I see your wishes on the wall That's all right with me I see you run to make a call Hoping that there's someone free Your life and my life they don't touch at all That's no way to be We've never seemed so far What's real what is true I ain't turning my back on you Where're you goin' where've you been Making wishes watching dreams It might be simple it might be true I might be overwhelmed by you You might be empty The way your eyes just look right through It's such a mess now anyway Wish fulfillment every day I don't believe you Now I can't hear a word you say I see you shaking in the light Reading the headline news The others they're not quite so bright We want them to choose you I could almost see your face tonight Singing simple rhythm and blues You'll always be a star Shake it baby come on scream Just see your face in a magazine Don't doubt it leaves Chris sore I can't stand it anymore It's my favorite shot of you You look so pretty your eyes were true I'm still on your side In spite of everything you do We're only blood on blood on life You paint me pictures every night Come wish beside me Don't you know you know what's right
