Joe Crubaugh - Wishing My Life Away Lyrics

Three more weeks till holiday
Three more weeks of getting paid
See my friends, not much to say
It's looking like more snow today
So I grab my phone and I read the news
So many people got nothing to lose
But they say the future's gonna be okay
And I find myself wishing my life away

Sitting at the traffic light
Thinking 'bout a dream last night
You and I were slipping away
Like Audrey in Roman Holiday
And I wish that I could go back to bed
And stay in the heaven that was in my head
Light turns green, it's another day
And I find myself wishing my life away

Don't you know someday feels like
It's never gonna come, never gonna come around.
One day soon, maybe we can get stuck
Together in the same town

I still have a picture of you and me
Last June sitting on the beach
Wish that I could go back in time
Live in the heaven that's in my mind
But I know the world don't work that way
I really don't have more to say
Just want you to know that I'm okay
While I'm sitting here wishing my life away
Wishing my life away
