Lyrics
Wishing
Verse 1
Wish I was a raindrop, falling down to earth
Running down a ditch, with the dead leaves and the dirt
Tumblin’ with cigarette butts, turning into a brook
Rolling on, hoping it brings me back to you
Verse 2
Wish I was a dead leaf, cascading to the ground
Resting on the dirt, without a thud or a sound
Picked up by a gentle breeze, floating like a fool
Cause I’d rather be nowhere, if I’m not with you
Chorus
Mesmerising sunsets bring no joy to me
Everywhere I turn it’s your face that I see
Holding on to memories to see me through the day
Aimlessly drifting away
Instrumental part
Verse 4
Wish I was a teardrop, a bitter tear so sleek
Born out of your eyes and slither down your cheek
Resting on your lips, to feel them one last time
Tremble when you breathe, hanging on to dear life
