WISHES DIDN'T CARE

I SAW WHAT I NEEDED TO SEE

LET MY GUARD DOWN WHEN I WAS LOW

KNEW I COULD NEVER BE

THE KIND TO SETTLE DOWN

BUT TIME TOOK THE  EDGE OFF

LIKE THE TIDES ENDLESS FLOW

I STOPPED RUNNING

GAVE MY HEART TO CHANCE

ALL CAUTION THROWN TO THE WIND

CRASH OR FLY, ROMANCE OR GOODBYE

CUT MY LOSSES CUT MY TIES

TRY TO LEARN HOW NOT TO HURT INSIDE

YES OR NO, THERE'S NO IN BETWEEN

OH THE THINGS I'VE SEEN

TAKEN AND LEFT BEHIND

SHOULD OF TAKEN MY TIME

SAW WHAT I WANTED IN MY MINDS EYE

BUT THEN I COULDN'T FIND HER

SHE WAS GONE SHE WASN'T THERE

WISHES DIDN'T CARE

SET ME UP FOR FAILURE OR WAS IT ME

YOU GET UP HIGHER YOU CAN SEE

THE ROAD  THAT LEADS AWAY

YOU GET A LITTLE CLOSER EVERYDAY

DECISIONS BEING WEIGHED

TO STAY HERE I CAN SEE

I'M ALREADY FADING AWAY

SAVE MYSELF PICK A DAY

JUST UP AND RUN UNDER SUNNY SKIES

FOLLOW THE ROAD

ALL THE WAY TO SOMETHING NEW

YOU HOPE NONE OF THE SADNESS FOLLOWED YOU

THERE'S ONLY ROOM FOR SMILES

LIGHT AND FREE

ON THE WAY TO TOMORROW

START SOMETHING NEW

WISHES DIDN'T CARE

SO I'LL MAKE SOME THAT DO
