Wishful Thinking Lyrics

Tides turn, winds change
But I remain
Sun burns, my soul breaks
From yesterday
A long string that
Leads up to the sky
Reel me in but
I can't read the signs

When did your heart go missing
A fool was I for wishful thinking
When did your heart go missing
A fool was I for wishful thinking

Tides turn, winds change
But I remain
Night falls, your heart's gone
It starts to fade
An echo repeats
Out of last night's breath
Singing to me
Songs of love and death

When did your heart go missing
A fool was I for wishful thinking
When did your heart go missing
A fool was I for wishful thinking

Chasing kites
I'm running faster than my feet can carry
Trading time
For pockets full of change that keep me heavy
Chasing kites
I'm running faster than my feet can carry
Trading time
For pockets full of change that keep me heavy

When did your heart go missing
A fool was I for wishful thinking
When did your heart go missing
A fool was I for wishful thinking

When did your heart go missing
A fool was I for wishful thinking
When did your heart go missing
A fool was I for wishful thinking
Wishful thinking

for duty and humanity

Tides turn, winds change
But I remain
Sun burns, my soul breaks
From yesterday
A long string that
Leads up to the sky
Reel me in but 
I can't read the signs

When did your heart go missing
A fool was I for wishful thinking
When did your heart go missing
A fool was I for wishful thinking

Tides turn, winds change
But I remain
Night falls, your heart's gone
It starts to fade
An echo repeats
Out of last night's breath
Singing to me 
Songs of love and death

When did your heart go missing
A fool was I for wishful thinking
When did your heart go missing
A fool was I for wishful thinking

Chasing kites
I'm running faster than my feet can carry
Trading time
For pockets full of change that keep me heavy
Chasing kites
I'm running faster than my feet can carry
Trading time
For pockets full of change that keep me heavy

When did your heart go missing
A fool was I for wishful thinking
When did your heart go missing
A fool was I for wishful thinking

When did your heart go missing
A fool was I for wishful thinking
When did your heart go missing
A fool was I for wishful thinking
Wishful thinking

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
