SANTANA LYRICS - Wishing It Was

"Wishing It Was"

(feat. Eagle Eye Cherry)



Beauty and grace is what touches me most

Good time can put me in fear

Always feel safe when things are bad

So I cannot let you come near

It seems that I thrive on the dark side of things

I always feel alive when the death bell rings

Now you have come and bring out the tears in me

Pain never makes me cry, but happiness does

It's so strange to watch my life go by

Wishing it was

Wishing it was more like a fantasy

Where everyone surprises me

Wishing it was

This feeling won't last cause I cannot survive

I tell you I've been here before

When it's movin this fast

It's a matter of time

One of us walks out that door

It seems that I thrive on the dark side of things

I always feel alive when the death bell rings

Now you come and you bring out the tears in me

Give this some thought

And I'm sure you will know

This is the way it must be

Emotions will rise, emotions will flow

You bring out the tears in me

It's so strange to watch your life walk and where everyday

I've been burning the candle at both ends

And lied the truth I can't pretend

This is why I will not stay baby

Just like that I'm on my way
