Wishful Thinking
León Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
There is a place where we can go
Down the highway
The stars are out, they're just for us
Like a scene from a movie
I see us now, mm
The night is ours
To the magic hours
Oh, I could still remember how
We would dream of a future
And paint it bright, mm
You told me your darkest secrets
You know that I still keep them
So here's to the end and new beginnings
Running straight to the edge, no second-guessing
And we'll grow old, I know, but they never fade
The days when we were living our wishful thinking
It's always hiding there in the corner of my mind
Do you still go there to get a taste of what it's like?
Get the world off your shoulders, I know we are older
But it's never over for me
So here's to the end and new beginnings
Running straight to the edge, no second-guessing
And we'll grow old, I know, but they never fade
The days when we were living our wishful thinking
Ooh
Ooh-ooh
Ooh
Ooh-ooh
I told you my darkest secrets
I know that you still keep them
Sometimes I find myself reaching
So close, I can touch the feeling
So here's to the end and new beginnings
Running straight to the edge, no second-guessing
And we'll grow old, I know, but they never fade
The days when we were living our wishful thinking
Ooh
Ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh
The days when we were living our wishful thinking

I remember vividly how we used to dream of a bright future
We would dream of a future
We had big aspirations for our lives together

Let go of your worries and regrets, we still have time to chase our dreams

I'll never stop dreaming and chasing my aspirations
I told you my darkest secrets
I trusted you with my deepest and most personal thoughts
I know that you still keep them
I know that you still hold my secrets close to your heart

I still think about our dreams and aspirations
So close, I can touch the feeling
Those memories still feel so real and within reach

She has such a beautiful, unique, soothing voice. Her songs are relatable and touch one's heart & soul.
Grateful I found her, with one of my (instantly) favorite songs, "Fade Into A Dream" The video, is beautifully done, a perfect choice for the song.
Her style, powerful lyrics are heartfelt, peaceful and even have a healing type of energy.
Her music is deeply cathartic, imho.
Hope she tours outside of Europe sometime, as would love to see her live.
Hope she becomes more mainstream, recognized, as she is a very gifted Artist! 💖
Please, Leon, keep writing, creating your unique sound, that deeply touches and transports us. Takes, elevates us to a whole other level.
We need more music like this.
With gratitude and love ❤
