wish it was me

well i guess i'm doin' alright

i've had a few hard nights

empty bottles to show now

i hear you're doin' okay

i guess you turned the page

oh

but baby you should know

when teardrops fall from your pale blue eyes

as sad as the sky on the 5th of july

when you're lyin' with him and he's fast asleep

know

you're gonna wish it was me

i still got a long way to go till spring

but i know when it's gone 'cause i don't feel a thing

when you tangle with him in the midnight sheet show

you're gonna wish it was me

well love is such a funny thing

you're pickin' out a ring

the next thing you know

the grass is always green

on the other side

until you throw a blanket on it

when teardrops fall from your pale blue eyes

as sad as the sky on the 5th of july

when you're lyin' with him and he's fast asleep

know

you're gonna wish it was me

i still got a long way to go till spring

but i know when it's gone 'cause i don't feel a thing

when you tangle with him in the midnight sheet show

you're gonna wish it was me

yeah

you know i won't be hard to find

i'll be right there on your mind

under lock and key

and girl there's gonna come a day

when you have to look away

when he's whisperin' your name

you're gonna wish it was me

when teardrops fall from your pale blue eyes

as sad as the sky on the 5th of july

when you're lyin' with him and he's fast asleep

know

you're gonna wish it was me

i still got a long way to go till spring

but i know when it's gone 'cause i don't feel a thing

when you tangle with him in the midnight sheet show

you're gonna wish it was me

yeah

yeah

you're gonna wish it was me

yeah

yeah

yeah
