Say you'll stay here with me forever
Wishful thinking is beautiful to me

I'm not your property, so take your hands from me, go
You have no custody, I will pass as I please, you know

That you're a fool if you thought I was here to stay
What's done is done
Boo-hoo all you want, but I'm on my way
Goodbye, it's been fun
You beg, "don't go"

Say you'll stay here with me forever (don't go)
Wishful thinking is beautiful to me

All body's malady, there is no remedy, no
You scream out mutiny, I am audacity, so..

You try to hold what you can, it's an idle grasp
Out I will run
Memories are the shadows that I cast
I'm wasted on the young
You beg, "don't go"

Say you'll stay here with me forever (don't go)
Wishful thinking is beautiful to me (you beg, don't go)
Once you go you'll be gone forever
This I know, so I just can't let you leave

Oh, how long?
Oh, how I long

On and on and on and on...
On and it's all gone
