If Wishes Were Horses ft. Tori Nance Lyrics

One two three four

I wish it didn't hurt me to hold you

In my arms at night

I wish it didn't burn me to say your name

Like it's a crime

I wish I knew the difference between good love and a good time

But if wishes were horses

Then beggars would ride

Just let it be and let sleeping dogs lie

Do not resuscitate this end of life

I'll call it a mercy oh oh

If we let this love die

I wish there wasn't silence from the secrets

You swore you wouldn't keep

I wish there wasn't anger in your eyes

Every time you look at me

I've been watching the willows weep

They know that

If wishes were horses

Then beggars would ride

Just let it be and let sleeping dogs lie

Do not resuscitate this end of life

I'll call it a mercy oh oh

If we let this love die

You checked all the boxes

Now I'm packing up

We're good on paper

But it wasn't enough

This should have been forever

But at the end of the day

If wishes were horses

Then beggars would ride

Just let it be and let sleeping dogs lie

Do not resuscitate this end of life

I'll call it a mercy oh oh

If we let this love die

Let this love die

If we let this love die
