Capo 2, standard tuning.
[Hook]
Can we pretend that airplanes
In the night sky
Are like shooting stars
I could really use a wish right now (wish right now, wish right now)
Can we pretend that airplanes
In the night sky
Are like shooting stars
I could really use a wish right now (wish right now, wish right now)
[Verse 1]
I m in the business of misery, let s take it from the top
She s got a body like an hourglass that s ticking like a clock
It s a matter of time before we all run out...
When I thought he was mine, she caught him by the mouth
I waited eight long months
She finally set him free
I told him I couldn t lie, he was the only one for me
Two weeks and we had caught on fire
She s got it out for me, but I wear the biggest smile
[Verse 2]
Second chances: they don t ever matter, people never change
Once a , you re nothing more, I m sorry that ll never change
And about forgiveness, we re both supposed to have exchanged
I m sorry honey, but I m passing up, now look this way
Well there s a million other girls who do it just like you
Looking as innocent as possible to get to who
They want and what they like, it s easy if you do it right
Well I refuse, I refuse, I refuse!
[Hook]
Can we pretend that airplanes
In the night sky
Are like shooting stars
I could really use a wish right now (wish right now, wish right now)
Can we pretend that airplanes
In the night sky
Are like shooting stars
I could really use a wish right now (wish right now, wish right now)
[Verse 3]
She lives in a fairy tale Somewhere too far for us to find
Forgotten the taste and smell Of a world that she s left behind
It s all about the exposure the lens I told her
The angels are all wrong now She s ripping wings off of butterflies
So one day he found her crying Coiled up on the dirty ground
Her prince finally came to save her And the rest you can figure out
But it was a trick And the clock struck 12
Well make sure to build your house brick by boring brick or the wolves gonna blow it down
[Hook]
Can we pretend that airplanes
In the night sky
Are like shooting stars
I could really use a wish right now (wish right now, wish right now)
Can we pretend that airplanes
In the night sky
Are like shooting stars
I could really use a wish right now (wish right now, wish right now)
[Outro]
All I wanted was you
All I wanted was you
All I wanted was you
All I wanted was you
