lou emery - wish lyrics

[verse]
wonder, whatever happened to the thunder?
i much prefer it to the silent kind of gloom
i’m doomed if he’s done fighting for the thing we had
before i lost sight of all the things we swore by
but it’s so hard to swear by dreams

[pre+chorus]
he has my photo in a locket
he holds the memory in his pocket
he’s hoping i’ll return to who i was back on the day we got it
well, i’m trying, i’m trying
i’m trying

[chorus]
he says he loves me, but he loves me not
he’s gotten me mistaken
for the image in his mind i set for me
he thinks he knows me, but he don’t know a lot
i’m not all that convincing
‘cause i still can’t hide what’s wrong with us
he loves me for who i wish i was

[verse]
someday, i’ll own a cabin on a blue lake
and spend my hours laughing, dreaming, free of care
for where i’m headed, ‘cause i will have gotten there
and he’ll see a girl as light as i said i’d be
if he could wait a little more
(more, mm)
[pre+chorus]
i keep that wish deep in a pocket (ah)
i hold it far away and lock it (mm)
‘cause i got so afraid of wishing things, so i forgot it
but i’m trying, i’m trying
(i’m trying, i’m trying)
i’m trying

[chorus]
he says he loves me, but he loves me not
he’s gotten me mistaken
(you know he’s gotten me mistaken)
for the image in his mind i set for me
(hm, hm, hm)
he thinks he knows me, but he don’t know a lot
i’m not all that convincing
‘cause i still can’t hide what’s wrong with us
he loves me for who i wish i was

[bridge]
maybe that’s just how it goes
(how it goes)
early on, we wear our best clothes
and it starts to fall apart
once what’s underneath shows
(ah)
he’s been holding hope for me
(holding hope)
he’s been holding out for me (yeah)
and i’ve been holding on so tight
but i gotta let him be

[chorus]
‘cause he says he loves me, but he loves me not
he’s gotten me mistaken
(he’s gotten me)
for the image in his mind (mind)
but that’s not me (ooh)
he thinks he knows me, but he don’t know a lot
i’m not all that convincing
‘cause i still can’t hide what’s wrong with us
(what’s wrong with us)
he loves me for who i wish i was
