[Verse 1]
I bet you wish my number lit up
When that check engine light came on
I’d have had it in the shop by Tuesday
Before you could’ve blinked, it’d be gone
I bet you wish I showed up laughing
When that blue light hit your rearview
You’d be cussing, I’d be swiping my card
Saying, “Baby, I got you.”
[Pre-Chorus]
Funny how forever feels expensive
After you let it drive away…
[Chorus]
I bet you wish, I bet you wish
You still had somebody like this
Late-night burgers, Friday fries
A ride, a laugh, a second try
I bet you wish, I bet you wish
You knew what you were gonna miss
Someone in your corner every day
Making hard things fade away
Oh-oh… I bet you wish.
Yeah, I bet you wish.
[Verse 2]
I bet you miss those grocery runs
Loading up your favorite snacks
Never checking what they cost
Just throwing everything in the back
I bet you miss your Player Two
When you said you weren’t playing right
I’d tell you, “Damn, you’re better than that,”
Then stay up gaming half the night
I bet you miss the random DoorDash
Showing up just ’cause I cared
The hoodies, hood pins, little surprises
Wondering how they got there
I bet you wish when rent got tight
Or payday still felt far away
You had somebody in your corner
Who always found another way
[Pre-Chorus]
Funny how life starts throwing shit
The second I’m not around
Guess forever felt a whole lot easier
When I was holding you down
[Chorus]
I bet you wish, I bet you wish
You still had somebody like this
Sunday mornings, stupid jokes
Someone believing every hope
I bet you wish, I bet you wish
You knew what you were gonna miss
Someone who made the bad days light
And stayed when nothing felt alright
Oh-oh… I bet you wish.
Yeah, I bet you wish.
[Bridge]
Who fixed the problems instead of leaving?
Who made hard days a little less hard?
Who believed in every dream you had
Even when you didn’t believe that far?
Who would’ve celebrated every win
And caught you after every fall?
Funny how you don’t know what you’ve got…
‘Til you don’t got it at all.
[Final Chorus]
I bet you wish, I bet you wish
You still had somebody like this
Not because I bought you things
But because I gave you everything
You were busy chasing “maybe”
While I was choosing you every day
Now every little thing goes wrong…
And all I can think is… fuck.
I bet you wish, I bet you wish
You knew what you were gonna lose
Turns out forever ain’t so easy
When forever stops choosing you
Oh-oh… I bet you wish.
Yeah… I bet you wish.
