The Life I Wish I Had
Lyrics
There's a life I wish I had
The one I know I can't get back
Sometimes all I want is in the past
Walking through these empty rooms
Some still have the ghost of you
This one always stops me in my tracks
I know a new beginning's what I need
Still it's hard to let go of everything
So take it all away
The things these walls would say
I'm never really ready for goodbye
Giving myself one last look behind
To the life I wish I had
All those nights we watched TV
Back when we were a family
I know that healing means things have to change
But sometimes all I want is to the stay
So take it all away
The things these walls would say
I'm never really ready for goodbye
Giving myself one last look behind
Oo-oo-oo
Ahaa-aaa
Playing out a million stories
But all of them are make believe
They're still all I see
So Take it all away
The things these walls would say
I'm never really ready for goodbye
Giving myself one last look behind
And, next time I drive by you won't be mine
You're the life I wish I had
There's a life I wish I had
The one I know I can't get back
Sometimes all I want is in the past
Walking through these empty rooms
Some still have the ghost of you
This one always stops me in my tracks
I know a new beginning's what I need
Still it's hard to let go of everything
So take it all away
The things these walls would say
I'm never really ready for goodbye
Giving myself one last look behind
To the life I wish I had
All those nights we watched TV
Back when we were a family
I know that healing means things have to change
But sometimes all I want is to the stay
So take it all away
The things these walls would say
I'm never really ready for goodbye
Giving myself one last look behind
Oo-oo-oo
Ahaa-aaa
Playing out a million stories
But all of them are make believe
They're still all I see
So Take it all away
The things these walls would say
I'm never really ready for goodbye
Giving myself one last look behind
And, next time I drive by you won't be mine
You're the life I wish I had
