The Rebel Black Dot Anti-Valentine's Song o' the Day

New Found Glory, "The King of Wishful Thinking" from From the Screen to Your Steeo, Part II (Mike Papa Whiskey)

Commentary:
"I don't need to fall at your feet,
Just 'cause you cut me to the bone,
And I won't miss the way that you kiss me,
We were never carved in stone.

"If I don't listen to the talk of the town,
Then maybe I can fool myself.

"I'll get over you, I know I will,
I'll pretend my ship's not sinking,
And I'll tell myself I'm over you,
'Cause I'm the king of wishful thinking!
(I am the king of wishful thinking!)
I am the king of wishful thinking!

"I refuse to give in to my blues,
That's not how it's gonna be,
And I deny the tears in my eyes,
'Cause I don't want to let you see, no.

"That you have made a hole in my heart,
And now I've got to fool myself.

"I'll get over you, I know I will,
I'll pretend my ship's not sinking,
And I'll tell myself I'm over you,
'Cause I'm the king of wishful thinking!…"
