GUM - Wishing Afterwards Was Over Lyrics

Standing by the wishing well
Where push had come to shove
Where you said we might as well
Life's a guess and so is love
And you listen to that stupid song
The one you said would always be ours
Well always didn't last for long
And love's a drug that time devours

So I thought about hitching a ride
Now I'm feeling bolder
'Cause we'll never turn the tide now
The temperature's colder
And how I wish that our afterwards was over
And how I wish that our afterwards was over

Standing by the wishing well
Memories of a better time
When we played that scene so well
Like we had rehearsed the lines
So I thought about that stupid song
Turned a fiction into fact
Well, time now to move along
You should know I'm not coming back

So I thought about hitching a ride
Now I'm feeling bolder
'Cause we'll never turn the tide now
The temperature's colder
And how I wish that our afterwards was over
And how I wish that our afterwards was over
How I wish that our afterwards was over
And how I wish that our afterwards was over

Standing by the wishing well
Standing by the wishing well
