Close your eyes squeeze them tight
I wish I may, I wish I might
Keep on repeating your little chant
You might believe it but I just can't
Wish me away, wish me away
Keep talking louder that's what you do
You're just shouting over you
Trying to ignore the voice inside
You couldn't be more like a child
To wish me away, wish me away
Won't wish, hope, and pray
Wish me away
We didn't have an easy time
but whatever it was it was yours and mine
it wasn't always perfect or fair
You don't want it but it's still there
How's it workin' for you so far?
Do you feel better the longer we're apart?
Oh baby love's not like nicotine
You still see me, don't you, in your dreams
Wish me away, wish me away
Won't wish, hope, and pray
Wish me away
Wish me away, wish me away
Won't wish, hope, and pray
Wish me away
