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

I'm 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

Ah

Playing out a million stories

But all of them are make believe

Still, they're 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
