Wishers and Lovers

(Jackson)

 

Seems that the best things in life

Are those which are meant to be shared

The times we find them on our own

Simply do not compare

 

LIFT

We stop chasing success after we learn

There is never enough

As long as we have hearts that yearn

We always search for love

 

CHORUS

There are two types of people in the world

Wishers and Lovers

Wishers only wish they had someone

Lovers find one another

 

You may have given yourself for the last time

Or perhaps you’re not ready yet

You may have taken some sort of fall

Which you cannot forget

 

LIFT

Show me someone who hasn’t had their heart broken

I’ll show you someone who hasn’t lived

We have within us more than we know

When we think we have nothing to give

 

CHORUS

 

With visions of love from all that we’ve read

In novels and magazines

We dream of some fairytale end

Like every movie we’ve ever seen

 

LIFT

What the players won’t tell you is how many times

They’ve been hurt before

All to the point they didn’t know

If they could love anymore

 

CHORUS AND FADE
