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 your's 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
