Life as a House movie - What You Wish For lyrics

rate me

Song by Guster<br /><br>

Woke up today, to everything grey<br>

And all that I saw, just kept goin' on and on<br>

Sweep all the pieces under the bed<br>

Close all the curtains and cover my head<br>

<br>

And what you wish for won't come true<br>

You aren't surprised, love, are you<br>

<br>

If this serenade<br>

(repeat after me)<br>

(just a little bit closer)<br>

Is not what you want<br>

(do what I say)<br>

(caught up in a lie)<br>

It's just how it is<br>

(won't change a thing)<br>

(got a little bit colder)<br>

It keeps goin' on and on<br>

<br>

Come out, come out, wherever you are<br>

Would you do it all over<br>

Right from the start<br>

<br>

And what you wish for won't come true<br>

You aren't surprised, love, are you<br>

So what you wish for won't come true<br>

You aren't surprised, love, are you<br>

<br>

Once had this dream<br>

Crashed down in oz<br>

Not black and white<br>

But where the colors are<br>

I never dreamed that I would let it go<br>

<br>

And I will get what I deserve<br>

Keep all the secrets under the bed<br>

Open the curtains forget what I said<br>

<br>

And what you wish for could come true<br>

You aren't surprised, love, are you<br>

So what you wish for could come true<br>

You act surprised, love, are you<br>

<br>

<br>
