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

Chorus:
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 (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 going to be
And I deny the tears in my eyes
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

Chorus x 2

I will never, never, never shed a tear for you
I'll get over you, I know I will

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

Chorus

I'll get over you, I know I will
You made a hole in my heart
But, I won't shed a tear for you
I'll be the king of wishful thinking

I'll get over you, I know I will
I'll pretend my heart's still beating
'Cause, I've got no more tears for you
I'm the king of wishful thinking

I'll get over you, I know I will
You made a hole in my heart
And I'll tell myself, I'm over you
'Cause, I'm the king of wishful thinking
