A Flock Of Seagulls - Wishing

A Flock of Seagulls Wishing Extended Version

I really have no clue why I am so attached to 80s music. Actually I do. There is a type of melody use in that decade that isn't there for me in any other decade. Sometimes it pops up in early 90's music...but....

Lyrics:A Flock Of Seagulls

Wishing (If I had a Photograph of You)
--------------------------------------
it's not the way you look
it's not the way that you smile
although there's something to them
it's not the way you have your hair
it's not that certain style
but it it could be that perfume

if I had a photograph of you
something to remind me
I wouldn't spend my life just wishing

It's not the makeup and it's not the way that you dance
and it's not the evening sky
it's more the way your eyes are laughing as they glance
across the great divide

if I had a photograph of you
something to remind me
I wouldn't spend my life just wishing

it's not the things you say
it's not the things you do
it must be something more
and if I feel this way for so long
tell me is it all for nothing
I still work at it all

if I had a photograph of you
something to remind me
I wouldn't spend my life just wishing
