Wild Hope lyrics

All good things
All good things
All good things

Not sure where to go
Everybody I know says I'm too forgiving
And now that I'm wrong I don't wanna move on
I just keep reliving

All good things
I wish you
All good things come to an end
All good things
I wish you well

Lost inside of my head
Empty side of the bed
I feel this place without you

She likes chocolate in the morning
She drinks her coffee late at night
You can sense that she is guarded
But that's alright
She'll fall asleep while your still talking
With unfinished books beside her bed
She'll cancel all of her appointments
And go shopping instead

CHORUS
And in spite of what is right
Far beyond what she'd except
When the moon begs the question
Will you have the answer yet?

I was a day dream
Quiet and unseen
I lived in stories but inside I kept a mystery
I was a starling
Nobodys darling
Flying in perfect circles
Desperate company

And now Im ready
And now Im ready
And now Im ready to be
Extraordinary

A midnight airplane
A window blowing
I know I am another sparkle in the sky
I shine on copper
Still undiscovered

It's a take-out weekend
It's a fake-out smile and pretend
If nobody sees you cry
You can say it was raining outside

CHORUS
And all that you want
Is a few days down
All that you need
A little time to drown
It's to be expected
With all the weight you carry 'round
All that you want is
A Few Days Down

It's a short vacation
To a foreign nation
Oh, nothing familiar here

Well I put so much thought into getting ready
Now I know that was the best part

It's so easy to get caught up in what I'm regretting
Forget what I got from a wounded heart

I'm the one who likes Gardenia
I'm the one who likes to make love on the floor
I don't want to hang up the phone yet
It's been good getting to know me more

I've been seeing all my old friends in the city

You did everything I asked you not to
Look where it got you
I'm sure you heard it before
"How could you?"
"Baby why would you?"

(Goodbye)
Goodbye sweetheart
(Sweetheart)
Countdown started
Words are heavy but I'm far from broken hearted

(Goodbye)
Goodbye stranger
(Stranger)
I'll take the fall
Lies were tempting though you never really threw me off at all

Go ahead
Waste your time

There is part of me that wants an answer
And part of me that doesn't want to know
Part of you that I am in love with
And the part that I am willing to let go

This is a delicate unraveling
Now and then I find pieces on the floor
Tiny little bits that tell me
Maybe I shouldn't do this
Or love you anymore

Someone's gonna have to fess up
Someone's gonna have to clean this mess up

CHORUS

Drove to your house in the hills where I wanted to be
The lights were all on and I knew you were waiting for me
And that road became familiar like the mystery shape of your heart

And I know you loved me in your way
I'm looking forward to looking back on these days

And I'm fine but I'm not okay
I'm looking forward to looking back on these days

I'm not ready to confront
I'd rather cement my words this way
This could be the easy road out
But I'm just not all that happy
So I'm writing all this down
And I'll file it in a drawer someday
In lieu of a conversation
We'd probably forget to have anyway

CHORUS
I won't hold anything back
And I won't hold anything in
Feel like I know where this is going
And I might know how it ends
But I'm still

Somebody told me, they saw you somewhere
Somebody hold me, cause suddenly I'm a little, cold
Well I must be mistaken, you for somebody else
I know you all to well, or do I?

Chorus:
I heard you say
We were one and the same
Well wrong again
I could never do those things you did to me
I will be ok
In time you'll fade
Into the nothing that you are
The nothing you are

VS2

I'm a long way off
But I'm still around
Sitting on the couch
I'm watching you
And if I take my time
All the others give in
You still feel like you're standing in line

I just know that you're worth the wait
It's of no concern
It's a risk I'd gladly take
From time to time

CHORUS
Don't worry about yourself at all
I'll hang your work up on my wall
Hose you down and dress you up real nice

In the crazy world
Anything can happen
If you will it to
I'm just a hazy girl
Blurring all the edges
Only seeing blue

CHORUS
It's a Wild Hope
A Wild Hope
A Wild Hope
Everything will be alright

Lost inside
A painting of a city on a hotel wall

Days goes by
Wasting golden hours in the fall

CHORUS

I catch a glimpse of our reflection
Beside you I see myself
We are the season's new collection
