I Wish

Come inside
Don't wanna say this in the car
I wanna talk to you face to face
Let's not sit here in the dark
Can't put this off
Can't wait 'til later
'Cause it's breaking my heart
To know I've failed you

I wish I was the man that you needed
I wish that I could say the words and mean it
We both deserve fireworks
Thought this could be forever but it won't
I wish that I could love you
I wish that I could love you
But I don't

Deep inside
We both know this ain't right
When's the last time we felt butterflies
We don't even bother to fight
I've kept you close
I've kept you near
But we're not settling down
We're just settling here

I wish that I was the man you needed
I wish that I could say the words and mean it
We both deserve fireworks
This could be forever but it won't
I wish that I could love you
I wish that I could love you

It'll be hard to see you with somebody else
But I just smile and wish you well
I hope he'll be the man that you needed
I hope that he will say those words and mean it
We both deserve fireworks
Could've been forever but we missed it
I wish I could have loved you
I wish I could have loved you
But I don't
