Not the wishes
If everyone were as delicious as you
There'd be no use for wanting more
If everything was a beginning
There'd be no use for happy endings
This is what we have to be
Sorry we could barely start
But I never gave you flowers
While leaving out my heart
Chorus:
There's so much trapped behind your eyes
Wishing to the skies again
I know the stars aren't out tonight
But honey, just pretend
It's the problems that count
Not how we solve them
If everyone was a model of you
I'd carve every inch of the world
If everything was a beginning
There'd be no use for happy endings
We're at the point where we leave
And this is always the hardest part
But I never gave you kisses
While leaving out my heart
Chorus:
There's so much trapped behind your eyes
Wishing to the skies again
I know the stars aren't out tonight
But honey, just pretend
Wishing to God it wasn't the end
Or hadn't ever happened
I know the stars aren't out tonight
But honey, let's pretend
Let's just pretend
Chorus:
There's so much trapped behind your eyes
Wishing to the skies again
I know the stars aren't out tonight
But honey, just pretend
