It's 2:00 a.m. in your car

Windows down, you pass my street

The memories start

You say it's in the past

You drive straight ahead

You're thinking that I hate you now

'Cause you still don't know what I never said

I wish you would come back

Wish I never hung up the phone like I did, I wish you knew that

I'll never forget you as long as I live

And I wish you were right here

Right now, it's all good

I wish you would

It's 2:00 a.m. in my room

Headlights pass the window pane

I think of you

We're a crooked love in a straight line down

Makes you wanna run and hide

Then it makes you turn right back around

I wish you would come back

Wish I never hung up the phone like I did, I wish you knew that

I'll never forget you as long as I live

And I wish you were right here

Right now, it's all good

I wish you would

I wish we could go back

And remember what we were fighting for

And I wish you knew that I miss you too much to be mad anymore

And I wish you were right here

Right now, it's all good

I wish you would

I, I-I, I, I, I wish, I wish I

I, I-I, I, I, I wish, I wish I

I, I-I, I, I, I wish, I wish I

You always knew how to push my buttons

You give me everything and nothing

This mad, mad love makes you come running

To stand back where you stood

I wish you would, I wish you would

I wish you would, I wish you would

(I, I, I wish, I wish I)

2:00 a.m., here we are

See your face, hear my voice in the dark

We're a crooked love in a straight line down

Makes you wanna run and hide

But it made us turn right back around

I wish you would come back

Wish I never hung up the phone like I did, I wish you knew that

I'll never forget you as long as I live

And I wish you were right here

Right now, it's all good

I wish you would

I wish you would come back

Wish I never hung up the phone like I did, I wish you knew that

I'll never forget you as long as I live

And I wish you were right here

Right now, it's all good

I wish you would

I wish we could go back

And remember what we were fighting for

And I wish you knew that I miss you too much to be mad anymore

And I wish you were right here

Right now, it's all good

I wish you would

You always knew how to push my buttons

You give me everything and nothing

This mad, mad love makes you come running

To stand back where you stood

I wish you would, I wish you would

I wish you would, I wish you would

(I, I, I wish, I wish I)

I, I-I, I, I, I wish, I wish I

I, I-I, I, I, I wish, I wish I

I wish you would
