August - I Wish Lyrics

Tell me why you did it.
Tell me why'd you go.
Tell me how did it work out for the both of us.
Tell me what's the reason, (tell me why you lied)
And I'll explain how you done broke my heart and make this grown man cry.
When night turns into day, I'll feel the same way.
When dust turns into dawn, I can't move on.
And I will still be wishing.

[Chorus:]
I wish I tried a little bit harder.
Wish that I would bother.
Wish that I would be better to (deal with it)
I wish I could hold you once again.
I'm wishing I never had to wait.
I wish everything I did, I did better.
I wish to God I'd kept ya.
I wish that you would ain't never went away.
I wish that I ain't see, that you was doing better.
I wish that you was better with me.

Tell me why the indecision.
When nothing's left to say.
And why am I still missing your presence in my bed.
Why you in my mind still, why you in my dreams.
Why's my reality just never what it seems.
When night turns into day, I'll feel the same way.
When dust turns into dawn, I can't move on.
Cause I will still be wishing.

[Chorus:]
I wish I tried a little bit harder.
Wish that I would bother.
Wish that I would be better to (deal with it)
I wish I could hold you once again.
I'm wishing I never had to wait.
I wish everything I did, I did better.
I wish to God I'd kept ya.
I wish that you would ain't never went away.
I wish that I ain't see, that you was doing better.
I wish that you was better with me.

I wish [x20]
I wish I could've done a little bit better for the both of us.

[Chorus:]
I wish I tried a little bit harder.
Wish that I would bother.
Wish that I would be better to (deal with it)
I wish I could hold you once again.
I'm wishing I never had to wait.
I wish everything I did, I did better.
I wish to God I'd kept ya.
I wish that you would ain't never went away.
I wish that I ain't see, that you was doing better.
I wish that you was better with me.
