about

I Wish You Well is about regretting not taking a chance on someone because of assumptions you've made about them, and ultimately having to live with that decision, no matter how much it hurts.

lyrics

I'll always remember that late march night
The scribbled notes on the table
Laughing and crying and your eyes burned inside my mind
The strum of your guitar, the sound of your voice
You know it made me smile
But you were to much to handle
Now I understand why

You were my day dream, beautiful day dream
But now it's gone, I've got to accept reality

I wish I had known that there was a chance
I wish you were here but I wrote you off too fast
As much as it hurts me, you chose someone else
You're happy now and I wish you well

I was lost in those eyes dreaming up a thousand reasons
To break every rule
But you had me fooled 'cause I could have never guessed
That you could love me back if you wanted to
I wish I had the nerve to say it
But what does it matter when your lips belong to his

You were my day dream, beautiful day dream
But now it's gone and I don't know why it's so hard to believe

I wish I had known that there was a chance
I wish you were here but I wrote you off too fast
As much as it hurts me, you chose someone else
You're happy now and I wish you well

I can't forget every dream that I had
You were so damn flawless
Your face in the dark and those beautiful arms
You were all I wanted
Some fairytales are meant to be
'Cause he got down on one knee
I've never seen you smile so happily
But you ain't smiling at me

So I'll sit here in silence pretending I'm fine
Staring at my phone hoping you'll change your mind
As you hold him in your arms I'll close my door
And turn off the lights you had left on before

You were a day dream, only a day dream
And I still hold on to words never said so painfully

I wish I had known that there was a chance
I wish you were here but I wrote you off too fast
As much as it hurts me, you chose someone else
You're happy now and I wish you well
It's over now and I wish you well
