G
I threw a wish in the well,

Don't ask me, I'll never tell

I looked to you as it fell,

and now you're in my way

I trade my soul for a wish,
A
pennies and dimes for a kiss
Bm
I wasn't looking for this,
D
but now you're in my way

G
Your stare was holdin',
A
Ripped jeans, skin was showin'

Hot night, wind was blowin'

Where you think you're going, baby?

try to chase me,

Verse2:
You took your time with the call,
I took no time with the fall
You gave me nothing at all,
but still, you're in my way
I beg, and borrow and steal
Have foresight and it's real
I didn't know I would feel it,
but it's in my way

Your stare was holdin',
Ripped jeans, skin was showin'
Hot night, wind was blowin'
Where you think you're going, baby?

Hey, I just met you, and this is crazy,
but here's my number, so call me, maybe?

Hey, I just met you, and this is crazy,
but here's my number, so call me, maybe?

but here's my number, so call me, maybe?

Before you came into my life
I missed you so bad
