I Wish I Was Lyrics by David J (Country)

2022

[Verse 1]
I ain't drivin' down Sycamore Boulevard anymore
With her in my shotgun seat
But I wish I was
I ain't that call from her mama when she can't get a hold of her
Wonderin' if she's with me
But I wish I was, oh
[Pre-Chorus]
And I ain't the reason that she's leavin'
Or rushin' home when the night's still young
I ain't the kiss that she's been needin'
But I wish I was
[Chorus]
I can't blame her for takin' that heart of hers away
And I can't hate her even though I try to every day
She slipped through my hands and, hell, that's on me
And now she's somewhere out there fallin' for somebody
I wish I was
[Verse 2]
I ain't that "sorry" she's been dyin' to hear
That could change her view in the rear-view mirror
But I wish I was, yeah
And, no, I ain't even a story she'd say one day
Lookin' back 'bout a boy that got away
But I wish I was, yeah
[Chorus]
'Cause I can't blame her for takin' that heart of hers away
And I can't hate her even though I try to every day
She slipped through my hands and, hell, that's on me
And now she's somewhere out there fallin' for somebody
I wish I was
[Pre-Chorus]
And I ain't the reason that she's leavin'
Or rushin' home when the night's still young
I ain't the kiss that she's been needin'
But I wish I was
[Chorus]
I can't blame her for takin' that heart of hers away
And I can't hate her even though I try to every day
She slipped through my hands and, hell, that's on me
Now she's somewhere out there fallin' for somebody
And now she's somewhere out there fallin' for somebody
I wish I was
