[Intro] [Verse 1] Lost my job on a Monday, call it a brand new start Stuck in traffic on the freeway, I just play guitar When the night feels colder, I see stars burning bright Every shadow whispers there’s another side to night [Chorus – Call & Response] Look, there goes the King of Wishful Thinking (Always smiling, never sinking) Silver clouds turn into golden skies.... (Dreamin’ big with wide-open eyes....) There goes the King of Wishful Thinking (Dreamin’ big with wide-open eyes....) [Verse 2] Car broke down on the roadside, I call it time to breathe Rain falls heavy on Friday, but the flowers drink with ease When the lights are fading, neon colors start to glow Every closed door, baby, just another way to go [Chorus – Call & Response] Look, there goes the King of Wishful Thinking (Always smiling, never sinking) Silver clouds turn into golden skies (Dreamin’ big with wide-open eyes....) There goes the King of Wishful Thinking (Dreamin’ big with wide-open eyes....) [musical interlude] [Bridge] [Fewer instruments] If it’s storming, thunder’s just a drum If it’s empty, more good things to come If it’s broken, then it can be mended Every story’s waiting to be rewritten, never ended [Final Chorus – Extended] Look, there goes the King of Wishful Thinking (Crown of hope, neon blinking) Silver clouds turn into golden skies.... (Dreamin’ big with wide-open eyes) Look, there goes the King of Wishful Thinking (Forever shining, forever believing.....) Yeah, There goes the King of Wishful Thinking (Dreamin’ big with wide-open eyes....) [musical ending]
