I Wish
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Beautiful lies, beautiful face
Gave you forgiveness just so I could stay
Beautiful lies, heaven could wait for you
Twisting me round, twisting at you
Twenty-one songs and they're all about you
I'm gon' forget, heaven could wait for you
Roses bloom when you touch my body
Try my best to make you adore me
Every night was a different story
Wish I could stop wasting my love on you
I wish, wish that I could break your heart
Shatter it up like broken glass
A hundred little pieces and a hundred little stars
I wish that I could break your heart, your hеart
I wish that I could break your heart
Shatter it up likе broken glass
A hundred little pieces and a hundred little stars
I wish that I could break your heart, your heart
I wish that I could break your heart, your heart
I wish that I could break, wish that I could break your heart
I wish that I could break your heart, your heart
Tears on my skin, pumps to the sky
I go to parties just to feel alive
Hoping you're there, waiting 'til 4 A. M
Drive through the night, starting at stars
Roll down the window, it feels something more
Hollywood hurts, driving and I can't forget
I wish, wish that I could break your heart
Shatter it up like broken glass
A hundred little pieces and a hundred little stars
I wish that I could break your heart, your heart
I wish that I could break your heart
Shatter it up like broken glass
A hundred little pieces and a hundred little stars
I wish that I could break your heart, your heart
I wish that I could break your heart, your heart
I wish that I could break, wish that I could break your heart
I wish that I could break your heart
I wish that I could break, wish that I could break your heart
I wish that I could break your heart
I wish that I could break, wish that I could break your heart
I wish I could break your heart, baby
I wish I could break your heart, baby
I wish I could break it to million pieces, baby
I wish I could break your heart, baby
I wish I could break your heart, baby
I wish I could break your heart
I wish I could break your heart, baby, oh
Light it up time, falling apart for you
Ooh
Yeah, light it up time, falling apart for you
