Wish It Away Songtext
von Jeffrey Gaines

It started off small
I never thought it would grow
It must have climbed aboard while I was sleeping
You know
Now I don′t feel the same
My vision doesn't match my name
And all this time I thought I had it under control
Now I can′t resist the temptation
And it calls to me each and every hour
And I'm faced with the failure of me
And I just ain't got the power
To make it go away
Wish I could wish it away
I was so blind to think
This never could happen to me
And I didn′t really notice
Cause it happened so gradually
Now I know that I′ve been telling me lies
It's getting harder and harder to disguise
I′ve gone and become the man I said I'd never be


Now I know I must change
But where should I start
There′s so much work that has to be done
I've been bitter and mean
Got a low self esteem
And I′m reaching out to anyone
To make it go away
Wish I could wish it away
Wish I could make it go away
Wish I could wish it way
I've got to find a way today
To turn my condition around
Exchange the bad for the good
And be stepping on bright new ground
Take control of my life before it's too late
Before I seal my fate
I′ve got to make it go away
Wish I could wish it away
Wish I could make it go away
Wish I could wish it way
