Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Lately I have had the strangest feeling
With no vivid reason here to find
Yet the thought of losing you's been hanging
'Round my mind
[Verse 2]
Far more frequently, you're wearing perfume
With you say, no special place to go
But when I ask, will you be coming back soon?
You don't know, never know
[Verse 3]
Well, I'm a man of many wishes
Hope my premonition misses
But what I really feel
My eyes won't let me hide
'Cause they always start to cry
'Cause this time could mean goodbye
[Verse 4]
Lately I've been staring in the mirror
Very slowly picking me apart
Trying to tell myself I have no reason
With your heart
[Verse 5]
Just the other night while you were sleeping
I vaguely heard you whisper someone's name
But when I ask you of the thoughts you're keeping
You just say, nothing's changed
[Verse 6]
Well, I'm a man of many wishes
I hope my premonition misses
But what I really feel
My eyes won't let me hide
'Cause they always start to cry
'Cause this time could mean goodbye
Goodbye
[Verse 7]
Oh, I'm a man of many wishes
I hope my premonition misses
But what I really feel
My eyes won't let me hide
'Cause they always start to cry
'Cause this time could mean goodbye
