Careful What You Wish For

about

Take this thing called love away
It doesn’t change a thing in my life
But come and stay with me tonight
All the twists of life I miss
Every vision that I could wish
Makes me want to try a little harder

Simple living, the single life
I've got home-cooked dinners, the TV’s on
Simple living, the single life
I've got home-cooked dinners

Careful what you wish for
You might like it
Too much of a good thing
Goes to waste

Simple living, the single life
I've got home-cooked dinners, the TV’s on
Simple living, the single life
I've got freeze-packed dinners

Take this thing called love away
It only complicates the things I need
I guess I’m not everything I should be
Wall to wall, I don’t need it all
Though I’d feel withdrawn
Perhaps I’m not really trying at all

Simple living, the single life
I've got home-cooked dinners, the TV’s on
Simple living, the single life
I've got freeze-packed dinners

Careful what you wish for
You might like it
Too much of a good thing
Goes to waste
Careful what you wish for
You might like it
Too much of a good thing
Goes to waste

Simple living, the single life
I've got home-cooked dinners, the TV’s on, yeah
Simple living, the single life
I've got home-cooked dinners

Careful what you wish for
You might like it
Too much of a good thing
Goes to waste
Careful what you live for
You might need it
Too many of the best things
Go to waste
Careful what you live for
Careful what you live for

And careful what you live for
Careful what you live for

The Quixotes London, UK

With infectious and highly melodic tunes, The Quixotes specialize in songs about abject misery. Straddling multiple genres including electronica, indie- rock, 80's pop and blues. The rather schizophrenically monikered Quixotes were in fact merely one Matt Black, a London- based singer- songwriter. ... more
