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 kissed 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 Ooh yeah,I am the King of Wishful Thinking Go West I refuse to give in to my blues That's not how it's gonna be And I deny the tears in my eyes I don't wanna 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 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 know I will I'll pretend my heart's still beating 'Cause I've got no more tears for you I'm the King of Wishful Thinking
