To Wish Impossible Things Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Remember how it used to be
When the sun would fill the sky
Remember how we used to feel
Those days would never end
Those days would never end
[Verse 2]
Remember how it used to be
When the stars would fill the sky
Remember how we used to dream
Those nights would never end
Those nights would never end
[Chorus]
It was the sweetness of your skin
It was the hope of all we might have been
That filled me with the hope to wish impossible things
To wish impossible things
To wish impossible things
[Verse 3]
But now the sun shines cold
And all the sky is grey
The stars are dimmed by clouds and tears
And all I wish is gone away
All I wish is gone away
[Outro]
And all I wished is gone away
All I wish is gone away
All I wish is gone away
All I wish is gone away
