Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Not like I think about it night after night
Your name is echoing inside of my mind
Then I got to know you
All false hopes rued
And then I opened
Right up to you
[PreChorus]
This stupid act, that things aren't bad
We could never be like that
Live far away now, that's no joke
No way to reach you when I'm low
[Chorus]
Lying around daydreaming
Wanting you now, but that's wishful thinking
Lying around daydreaming
Wanting you now, but that's wishful thinking
[Verse 2]
Hard to remember everything that you said
Won't let that pointless talk stay trapped in my head
Then I got to know you
All false hopes rued
Those days are gone now
You left too soon
[Verse 3]
This stupid act, that things aren't bad
We could never be like that
Live far away now, that's no joke
No way to reach you when I'm low
[Chorus]
Lying around daydreaming
Wanting you now, but that's wishful thinking
Lying around daydreaming
Wanting you now, but that's wishful thinking
[Bridge]
Everything you've said makes sense to me right now
You were just straight scared, afraid it might work out
Everything you've said makes sense to me right now
You were just straight scared, afraid it might work out
[Chorus]
Lying around daydreaming
Wanting you now, but that's wishful thinking
Lying around daydreaming
Wanting you now, but that's wishful thinking
[Bridge]
Everything you've said makes sense to me right now
You were just straight scared, afraid it might work out
Everything you've said makes sense to me right now
You were just straight scared, afraid it might work out
[Outro]
Afraid it might work out
