Wish I Knew
Maddie Rayne


Underneath the painted skies
So blue
We found a rhythm just for two
Living for love
And the laughter we'd share
Never thinking
Our dreams would disappear
We were wild and free
Like the summer breeze
In the fields
Just you and me
Promises whispered
In the midnight air
But now there's an emptiness
Everywhere
You were my heart's only desire
In this wide open space
We danced under the sun's bright fire
But now you've left no trace
Every tear I cried was for you
Every word you spoke felt so true
But it's over now, what to do?
Wishin' I never fell for you
I see your shadow by the riverside
Where we used to dream and confide
Now the wind carries whispers away
Leaving memories of yesterday
Every tear I cried was for you
Every moment shared, all we knew
But it's over now, gotta move through
Wishin' I never fell for you
Make it right
I pick up the pieces of our broken past
Trying to find the peace that will last
The echoes of love still linger on
But I'll learn to find where I belong
Every tear I cried was for you
Every word you spoke felt so true
But it's over now, what to do?
Wishin' I never fell for you
But it's over now, wish I knew
In dreams we painted in the sky once blue
Faded memories, I'll bid adieu
Wishin' I never fell for you
In the quiet, I'll find my way
Through the heartache, a brighter day
With the echoes of our yesterday
I'll stand strong, come what may
Every tear I cried was for you
Every song we sang, I thought they were true
But it's over now, breaking through
Wishin' I never fell for you
