I Wish I

(album: This Mess We're In - 2022)

Thinking about settling up
Kicking off the dust
Removing all the rust
That keeps me still

I think it's my time to go
Say goodbye to everyone I know
And I hope someday I'll be forgiven
For the bonds that I broke

I wish I could take you with me
But this road I must walk alone
I gotta get out of the city
Good god
I gotta lose myself
Just to find my way back home

No, I never thought I'd have to choose
Either way I know I'm gonna lose
The hardest thing that I'll ever have to do
Is leave this place without you

After everything had fell apart
They said time would heal my broken heart
So, why am I still here waiting for the healing to start

Cause I wish I could take you with me
But this road I must walk alone
I gotta get back to the country
Good god
I gotta lose myself
Just to find my way back home

I wish I could take you with me
But this road I must walk alone
I'm trying to get back down to Memphis
Good god
Been trying to lose myself
Just to find my way back home

We gotta lose ourselves just to find our way back home
