Day 13: A song about wishing

I was going to go super dark, raw and brutal. Think early 90s post hard-core.

But goddamit, I am an optimistic nihilist. And no one deserves that on a lovely Wednesday morning.

So go, Daddy-O.

Sweet dreams to carry you close to me;

Now goodnight, my someone, goodnight"

Really kicking myself for not making this the prompt on 11/11, so just pretend it’s two days ago.

“I wish I was a tune you sang in your kitchen
Putting your groceries away and washing your dishes
I could float around your tongue and ease the tension
And then when you were done you'd just quiet down”

The Avett Brothers - I Wish I Was

Day 13: A song about wishing

I wish, I wish, I wish...

I had a sweetly positive one all picked out, but @Whiskeyjack shot that down, so this is his fault. It was the harmonies that drew me in on this one when it came wandering out of my speakers, and this stripped down live version even more so. But lyrically, it is sweetly brutal. This is "wake up at 3 AM wishing."

"I wish that I was smarter and I wish I could
Communicate a thought without being misunderstood
But it's better keeping quiet, yeah, it's easy staying put."

and

"I think I have become the person that I said I never would."

But the real hit for me is the final line. And I wish, I wish, I wish...

"Wishes (live)," Tiny Habits

This would've worked for yesterday's prompt too, gotta get around to fixing that, but more importantly today's because it perfectly captures that youthful longing for someone seemingly unattainable.

I love this song, and have forever.

I also love that it is one of the songs you are forbidden from playing in a guitar store...
