When you told me you were leaving Girl, I didn't believe a word 'Cause to think that you'd walk out on me Just sounded too absurd I'd like to change the things I did That tore our love apart But that's just wishful thinking on my part Chorus: Well, I'm hoping and I'm praying You'll give me one more try 'Cause it's an awful price I'm paying With the tear drops that I've cried I guess I should have listened If I had only been that smart But that's just wishful thinking on my part I found out it's the little things That made our house a home You'd be surprised how much I've learned Every day since you've been gone But I wished I'd learned that lesson Before it broke my heart But that's just wishful thinking on my part Chorus Well, that's just wishful thinking on my part
