I Wish

Ah la, la
La, la, la, la, la
Ah la, la
La, la, la, la, la

If I could do one thing I would grab it all in a day
If I could do one thing I would say that it's all okay
If I could do one thing I would grab it all in a day
If I could do one thing I would say that it's all okay

I wish (I wish) this was just a phase (this was just a phase)
I wish (I wish) I wish it was that simple
(I wish it was that simple)
I wish (I wish) this was just a phase (this was just a phase)
I wish (I wish) I wish it was that simple (I wish it was that simple)

I don't know if you know, I call you
And I got scared I didn't hear from Georgia
I figured you moved away
And see, what you never learned, I taught you
But you didn't wear anything I bought you
Just got it for you today
See they were dimming your star and they'll ignore you
Baby, if you know me, you know I'm for you
The person you are

Ooh, but they didn't know you like I knew
You don't hear what they call you like I do
Maybe you moved too far
Maybe you moved too far
Moved too far

I wish (I wish) this was just a phase (this was just a phase)
I wish (I wish) I wish it was that simple (I wish it was that simple)

It wasn't the moment, it wasn't the mood
Tellin' me that I could do better
I wanted to rule the day and break every rule you say
That you're in the wrong, in the way
Feeling I could leave, maybe I could stay (maybe I could stay) stay in the wild, forever a child
For all the things I could do better, I'll go outta my way

When bad thoughts start to creep in write 'em down with the pen
Suicide notes, boats floatin' in the deep end
This ain't the planned route, I stand out, it's hard to fit in
That's when I hit a dead end, reality just set in

I be droppin' shit before it gets to hit the fan
Before I hit the man I'll hit the plane, let's hit Japan
And I was tasting my defeat until I heard you speak
"I got your back 'til you get on your feet"
I wish

I wish (I wish) this was just a phase (this was just a phase)
I wish (I wish) I wish it was that simple (I wish it was that simple)
I wish (I wish) this was just a phase (this was just a phase)
I wish (I wish) I wish for one of those days

In this ordinary
Ordinary life
Ordinary
