"Three Hopeful Thoughts" lyrics - RILO KILEY

All this talk of your sweet girlfriend is starting to pay off
And the charms that she got from travel are starting to wear off

[Chorus:]
And I hope that you smile tonight
Watching the last of your friends arrive
Smile and shake their hands

And the hero that you hoped you'd be never seemed to show up
And if I can keep on talking, there won't be time to give up

[Chorus:]
And I hope that I drive tonight
Into the last of the great sunrises
I'll smile and wave my hand goodbye

[Bridge:]
If things don't work out quite the way you planned
It's almost half past two and I've begun to hate the way you smile so slowly

[Chorus:]
And I hope that you close your eyes
And block out the pain of a thousand lies
And I hope that you die tonight
Just close your eyes, there goes the light
Smile, I'll brave it when you wave your hand goodbye
