Wishing On Forever

TAKE THE HANDLE BARS

AS FOOLS COLLIDE IN CARS

CAN YOU HEAR IT AS IT STARTS

THE CRY OF HISTORY REPEATING

 

ALL THESE THINGS THEY'LL SOON MEAN NOTHING

AS THE CHRONICLE IS CAST

WEEPING AND WONDERING WHY
SUCH THINGS MUST LAST

​

 

WE DON'T KNOW WHY

THE PRESENT FADES BEFORE US

WE DON'T KNOW WHERE IT DISAPPEARS

ALL WE KNOW IS THAT IT WILL

​

 

WE CAN'T BE WISHING ON, WISHING ON FOREVER

WE CAN'T BE WISHING ON, WISHING ON FOREVER

​

 

TIMES A SINKING BARGE

WE ARE RUSTING, WE AREN'T ANCHORED

AS THE SEASONS TURN TO ONES WE CAN'T BELIEVE IN

 

STANDING FOR SOME KIND OF SYSTEM

WITH PURSUIT FOR PRIDE AND FULL OF FALSE REWARDS

PLAYING GAMES TO HOURGLASSES

WHICH WE TURN HOWEVER FAST

SUITS US NOW WE CAN ONLY MEASURE

WE NEED TO LEARN WE CAN'T CONTROL IT

​

 

NO WE CAN'T BE WISHING ON, WISHING ON FOREVER

NO WE CAN'T BE WISHING ON, WISHING ON FOREVER

​

SEE WE DON'T KNOW WHY

THE PRESENT FADES BEFORE US

WE DON'T KNOW WHERE IT DISAPPEARS

ALL WE KNOW IS THAT IT WILL

YEAH, WE CAN'T BE WISHING ON, WISHING ON FOREVER

NO, WE CAN'T BE WISHING ON, WISHING ON FOREVER

WE CAN'T BE WISHING ON, WISHING ON FOREVER
