I don't need to fall at your feet
 Just 'cause you cut me to the bone
 And I won't miss the way that you kiss me
 We were never carved in stone
 If I don't listen to the talk of the town
 Then maybe I can fool myself..

 I'll get over you.. I know I will
 I'll pretend my ship's not sinking
 And I'll tell myself I'm over you
 'cause I'm the king of wishful thinking
 I am the king of wishful thinking

 I refuse to give in to my blues
 That's not how it's going to be
 And I deny the tears in my eyes
 I don't want to let you see.. no
 That you have made a hole in my heart
 And now I've got to fool myself..

 I'll get over you.. I know I will
 I'll pretend my ship's not sinking
 And I'll tell myself I'm over you
 'cause I'm the king of wishful thinking..
 I'll get over you.. I know I will
 I'll pretend my ship's not sinking
 And I'll tell myself I'm over you
 'cause I'm the king of wishful thinking

 I will never, never shed a tear for you
 I'll get over you

 If I don't listen to the talk of the town
 Then maybe I can fool myself..

 I'll get over you.. I know I will
 I'll pretend my ship's not sinking
 And I'll tell myself I'm over you
 'cause I'm the king of wishful thinking
 I'm the king of wishful thinking
 I'll get over you.. I know I will
 You made a hole in my heart
 But I won't shed a tear for you
 I'll be the king of wishful thinking
 I'll get over you..
 I'll pretend my heart's still beating
 'cause I've got no more tears for you
 I'm the king of wishful thinking..
 I'll get over you.. I know I will
 You made a hole in my heart
 And I'll tell myself I'm over you
 'cause I'm the king of wishful thinking
