wishing weed

mmm

mmm

i picked a wishing weed

beneath your mother's tree

and i asked it to

bring you back to me

then a dragonfly took it to the sky

and it rode on the wind

until it caught your eye

i'm never gonna get over you

not 'cause i can't

'cause i don't want to

mmm

i'm gonna get you back

if it's the only thing i do

i'm never gonna get over you

i took the secret path

to where i saw you last

and a sparrow dropped

a letter to me as it passed

it was a simple sketch of a heart in red

and it broke me

when i opened it

'cause all it said was

i'm never gonna get over you

not 'cause i can't

'cause i don't want to

you know it's true

that i'm gonna get you back

if it's the only thing i do

i'm never gonna get over

of all the lovers found

and lost and never seen again

you're the only one

that's worth repeating through my head

i'm never gonna get over you

mmm

not 'cause i can't

'cause i don't want to

you know it's true

that i'm gonna get you back

if it's the only thing i do

i'm never gonna get over you

oh

i'm never gonna get over you
