Lyrics Carole King

Carole King

Wishful Thinking

I see you, but you don't see me

Like a ghost of the future, hovering dark and dreamy

You fade in and out of the mist

Do you even exist, except in my wishful thinking

I reach for you, but I can't touch you

I feel you just beyond a star

Do you know how much you are all I ever wanted

Is it too much too soon

Am I foolishly dreaming

Just baying at the moon

Playing impossible visions like an elementary tune

How I wish that I could realize my heart

But it's only wishful thinking on my part
