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...

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
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...

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...
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

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

If I don´t listen to the talk of the town
Then maybe I can fool myself...

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
I´m the king of wishful thinking
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´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
