Berikut ini lirik lagu "I Wish" dari Imagine Dragons.
[Verse 1]
I never called you and now it's too late
To say all the words that I've wanted to say
The doctor said, "Oh, there's a fight up ahead"
I should've been there by your hospital bed
So it rains every day, oh, it rains every day
Oh, I haven't got the words to say
[Chorus]
How I wish I was a better friend
Before it was too late
I wish that I would've been there in the end
I wish I was a better friend
[Verse 2]
I wasn't there when you said your goodbye, and I
Replay in my mind 'bout a thousand times
I wasn't ther? for those rivers you cried
I was always too busy, no, I didn't mak? the time
So it rains every day, oh, it rains every day
Oh, I haven't got the words to say
[Chorus]
How I wish I was a better friend
Before it was too late
I wish that I would have been there in the end
I wish I was a better friend
[Bridge]
And everyday I wish you were here
Oh, every day I wish
Oh, every minute of every year
Swear I feel you near, near me
[Chorus]
How I wish (How I wish) I was a better friend (better friend)
Before it was too late
I wish that I would have been there in the end
I wish I was a better friend
