I Wish You Would
Train · Drops Of Jupiter
Sleepless nights and endless days
And all I do is promise to change my ways
Leave the lights on, you know IÂ’ll pretend youÂ’re on youÂ’re way
You used to say that thereÂ’s a time we all deserve to lose our minds
So I lost my mind now IÂ’m ready to find my way
Back home
Today
To stay
The way you wished I would
And I swear
To stay
The way you wished I would
I donÂ’t know if IÂ’m gonna have to redesign my mind
But tonight I made a wish and I so hope that it comes true
Cause itÂ’s been too long without you
ItÂ’s been too long
Come home
Today
To stay
The way you wished I would
And I swear
To stay
The way I wish you would
Düdüdüdüm,Düdüdüdüm
And even if I left it all behind
ThereÂ’d be reason to come back
And even though I left you far behind
I always thought that youÂ’d come here to find me
Come find me
I donÂ’t know if I can wait this long
To be what I used to be
And I donÂ’t think I can wait much longer
For the tide to come back to me
Come back to me
Back home
Today
To stay
The way I wish you would
And I swear
To stay
The way I wish you would
The way I wish you would
And all I do is promise to change my ways
Leave the lights on, you know IÂ’ll pretend youÂ’re on youÂ’re way
You used to say that thereÂ’s a time we all deserve to lose our minds
So I lost my mind now IÂ’m ready to find my way
Back home
Today
To stay
The way you wished I would
And I swear
To stay
The way you wished I would
I donÂ’t know if IÂ’m gonna have to redesign my mind
But tonight I made a wish and I so hope that it comes true
Cause itÂ’s been too long without you
ItÂ’s been too long
Come home
Today
To stay
The way you wished I would
And I swear
To stay
The way I wish you would
Düdüdüdüm,Düdüdüdüm
And even if I left it all behind
ThereÂ’d be reason to come back
And even though I left you far behind
I always thought that youÂ’d come here to find me
Come find me
I donÂ’t know if I can wait this long
To be what I used to be
And I donÂ’t think I can wait much longer
For the tide to come back to me
Come back to me
Back home
Today
To stay
The way I wish you would
And I swear
To stay
The way I wish you would
The way I wish you would
