Wishing Won’t Make It So

The Everly Brothers

Compositor: Phil Everly

You wake one day
To clouds of grey
The rain it soon appears
You close your eyes
Try to visualise
A day that’s bright and clear
But all too soon
Your lonely room
Is more than you can bear
So then you wish
For a Miss
Your lonely room to share
But wishing won’t make it so
I proved it long ago
Like other times
In your mind
You dream a love appears
Just for a while
Your heart it smiles
You found someone who cares
Your dream it fades
But truth it stays
And with truth you must live on
From deep inside
Your heart it cries
I wish that dreams lived on
But wishing won’t make it so
I proved it long ago
Wishing won’t make it so
I proved it long ago
