Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Listen to the waves
And everything communicates
Will it ever be
Anything more than wishful thinking?
[Verse 2]
Oh no, there you go, looked away and missed the show
How much wasted time will you survive?
[Verse 3]
I feel the blades of grass
How it brings you back
It will always be
Only as green as you can see
[Verse 4]
Oh no, there you go, looked away and missed the show
How much wasted time will you survive?
Oh yeah, fooled again, don't know how and I don't know when
Not much else to blame but wishful thinking
[Verse 5]
Little breakdowns in coastal towns
May come suddenly crashing all over you
They come easily
[Verse 6]
Falling through the skies
And frozen places
[Verse 7]
Oh no, there you go, looked away and missed the show
How much wasted time will you survive?
Oh yeah, fooled again, don't know how and I don't know when
Not much else to blame but wishful thinking
[Verse 8]
And I try to realize that I didn't look any further
The whole of the universe is plain to see
And I try not to rely on another world or the future
The whole of the universe is a mystery
[Verse 9]
And it gets me over
And it gets me over you, oh
And it gets me over (Oh)
And it gets me over you
