[Verse 1]
You was up to something
I was up to nothing
It was bound to happen that way
Rain in the streetlights
You in the midnight
We could've had it any day
A fire was raging down at the station
It was not ours to worry about he said
No truth at all
Babe I should've made the call
Half a favor's no favor at all
[Chorus]
Wish it could've been another way, ohhh
Wish it could've been another way, ohhh
[Verse 2]
You're sharp, you're clear, you're there and you're near
But you're too close for me to see
The way that it was, not despite but because
Will live in eternity
Go tell Celeste, who loved you the best
There's rains falling in the street
Florescent lights pounding in the neighborhood store
Little bell rang when you came in the door
[Chorus]
Wish it could've been another way, ohhh
Wish it could've been another way, ohhh
[Bridge]
Now I'm driving all night sedans
All the things I should've done
Babe well, I do what I can
Listening to the radio
As it plays on in my mind
How easily I lose the time
[Chorus]
Wish it could've been another way, oh
Wish it could've been another way, oh
All night sedans, all night sedans
All night sedans, all night sedans
