"Like I Wish I Had" original song by Kari Fleskes by KariFleskes

Is that restless spirit

still burning through your blood?

In your weakest moments

has that been good enough?

 

When you’re alone at night,

Do you cry yourself to sleep?

When no one’s watching

do you pretend that’s all you need?

 

    (Chorus:)

   The blues and the heartbreak can take a toll on a man,

   But still, here I am.

   Don’t let the crack in between us leave you afraid of

   what hasn’t happened yet.

   So live without holding back,

   like I wish I had.

 

You gave me something to dwell on

while dragging memories down the hall;

Now that it’s all said and done

are you all right with what it cost?

 

We came so far, then there you are,

demanding that we make a change;

Now we’re finding peace on separate paths

while goodbye drips down my face.

 

   (Repeat Chorus)
