[Verse 1]
I wish I had the confidence back in my younger days
To talk to the pretty girl, just say her name
I saw her every morning, stayed out of the way
Thinking I’d find the courage some other day
[Chorus]
Now It's twenty-six and I can’t find anyone
Sitting alone on my couch when the night comes
I’ve got what I need, not what I want
Got everything except someone to hold on
[Verse 2]
I go out looking, I give it a try
Crowded rooms, people passing me by
All they’re looking for is what you can give
Not what you’d give up just to really live
[Pre-Chorus]
They’re not looking for my last name
They’re looking for my dollar signs
[Chorus]
Yeah, now it's twenty-six and I can’t find anyone
Feels like I’m already counted out by everyone
They won’t even give me a chance
Won’t even take a second glance
[Bridge]
I wish in my younger days I was brave enough
To talk to the pretty girl, say something honest
I thought I had time, thought I’d grow
Didn’t know the moment would ever go
[Final Chorus]
Now It's twenty-six and I’m all alone
Still staring at a silent phone
I had the heart, just not the nerve
Now I’m not even given the chance I deserve
[Outro]
I wish I had the confidence back then
I wish I had it back then
