To Wish Impossible Things Lyrics
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
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
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
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
All I wish
Is gone away
When the sun would fill the sky
Remember how we used to feel
Those days would never end
Those days would never end
When the stars would fill the sky
Remember how we used to dream
Those nights would never end
Those nights would never end
It was the hope of all we might have been
That filled me with the hope to wish
Impossible things
To wish impossible things
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
Is gone away

this is the song I sent to my fiance' when we broke it off, and it was over some stupid things, but all hope has left for us. So I think this song represents us in a way that I never ever could have said (even being a guitarist and sonwriter myself). It was just a perfect song for my situation, and I will remember it always. it was the first song that started playing as she walked out the door, and I will never forget that day, the day that my heart died, and I started To Wish Impossible things.
that is exactly what i interpret the song as. at first there was so much hope for me and my lover. i never met a girl like her before. we didn't belong together. she was model beautiful and i ws just a normal guy. but we were is such deep love nothing could tear us apart. then it just fell into disintegration. it all fell apart and i wrote out these same words and gave them to her. 20 years later she see's the mistake she made, but it's too late.

Exactly my thoughts. I made a mistake 4 years ago, althought, she says, she's happier than ever... but her smile, her eye can't lie to me... Anyway, i made a mistake, and it seems impossible to correct them by any way... its too late...

I'm gay. I lost my partner to Cancer several years ago. We were engaged to be married and wanted to start our own business working with the Mentally Challenged. When he passed away I left work and live like a hermit ,rarely leaving the house. When I hear this song I always cry and think of what might have been.
i always wish impossible things in my life's relationship cycle i make a close female friend and because i'm not attractive and she's always the kind i dig (the kind who need a looker) i never have the confidence to act on my feelings when the time is right, and then long after, i say what i feel but it's hopeless, by that point it's never going to be a relationship (because she knows too much about me). and every time i lose my best friend, and every time i fail to nab the nookie so i always resign myself only To Wish Impossible Things
it's my themesong after all
One of the absolute saddest Cure songs I've listened to. Robert Smith takes the words right from my heart, he knows how much pain you feel when you've lost a love.. The pain that seems to never go away.
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
This is how I feel every day that I wake up and look up at the sky to see the sun and stars..Its just not the same anymore. The sun blazes hot on my skin but I am so cold and broken inside.
wow what a powerful song. I feel when Robert writes, he's writing for all of us. Saying all of things that we would like to say. I've been there!
Great song to listen to driving along an old highway. wow!
hey man i feel your pain slap bass. i have not had a relationship in about oh...... five years at least. this song is my themesong for love but also its my themesong for life, im always wisihgn i was somebody i wasn't and i honestly think that I will "wish impossible things" all my life. Hopefully one day all the wishing will amount to somethign glorious.

hey! you there! you happy punk! is amused at herself "sinking" is a very good slow song. this song, it's the representation of all my fears for the relationships i'm in right now. i'm in love, but i'm so scared that something will tear us apart. "it was the hope of all we might have been" i feel that line so very deeply. we could be something beautiful. "to wish impossible things" ... a wonderrful song. but i hope it never fits my situation.
...i can never hear this song again without hearing the sound of my lover's footsteps walking away from me on that impossible day...
