In “Wishful Dreaming” the song follows two people who are stuck in a relationship that feels amazing in the moment but falls apart the second real life hits. They keep running back to each other because the highs feel so good, even though they both know they’re avoiding the truth. It’s about loving the escape more than the reality almost like they’re choosing the dream instead of dealing with what’s actually wrong. It was released on December 6, 2025.

• 5 Seconds of Summer - Wishful Dreaming (Lyrics)

[Intro: Michael]
Caught up in a blissful feelin'

[Chorus: Luke]
That's me
Hidin' in a dream so deeply
That I can't wake up
And that's you
Holdin' on to me so sweetly
When we lose control

[Verse 1: Luke & Ashton]
Our bodies under covers, our heads up in the sky
A place where broken lovers go find somewhere to hide
We try to meet each other, find peace and take a dive
And when we both recover, we're always

[Pre-Chorus: Calum]
Running back to our old ways
How we gonna get through?
Pretending everything's okay
Are we telling the truth?

[Chorus: Luke, All]
That's me
Hiding in a dream so deeply
That I can't wake up
And that's you
Holding on to me so sweetly
When we lose control

[Post-Chorus: Luke, Michael]
Caught up in a blissful feelin' (I wanna let go)
Lost ourselves in wishful dreamin' (I wanna let go)

[Verse 2: Luke & Ashton]
Romantic disillusion
We run for paradise
Sleep walkin' through the motions

[Pre-Chorus: Michael]
We keep on runnin' back to our old ways
How're we gonna get through?
Pretendin' everything's okay
Are we telling the truth?

[Chorus: All, Luke]
That's me
Hiding in a dream so deeply
That I can't wake up
And that's you
Holding on to me so sweetly
When we lose control

[Post-Chorus: Luke, Michael, Luke & Calum]
Caught up in a blissful feelin' (I wanna let go)
Lost ourselves in wishful dreamin' (I wanna let go)
Caught up in a blissful feelin' (I wanna let go)
Lost ourselves in wishful

[Bridge: Ashton, Michael]
Dreamin', dreamin', dreamin'
I wanna let go

[Instrumental Break]

[Chorus: All, Luke]
That's me
Hiding in a dream so deeply
That I can't wake up
And that's you
Holding on to me so sweetly
When we lose control

[Post-Chorus: Luke, Michael]
Caught up in a blissful feelin' (I wanna let go)
Lost ourselves in wishful dreamin' (I wanna let go)
Caught up in a blissful feelin' (I wanna let go)
Lost ourselves in wishful dreamin' (I wanna let go)
