Ni Modo

I wish I could change the past
Erase all the tears you've cried
Wish I had arrived sooner
To catch you when you were falling

I get it
If the smoke in your room has clouded your mind
If you want me to stay or step aside
You know it’s fine by me

And I wish I had loved you another day
In another time, in another life
With fewer excuses
Fewer scars

And the truth is
I won’t deny it, I would’ve liked
For your story to be by my side
And not just a quick in and out

But, no way
You can’t always have it all

Maybe we just weren’t in sync
And it wasn’t your fault or mine
It’s clear to me it wasn’t for lack of love
Oh, ooh

And I wish I had loved you another day
In another time, in another life
With fewer excuses
Fewer scars

And the truth is
I won’t deny it, I would’ve liked
For your story to be by my side
And not just a quick in and out

But, no way
You can’t always have it all
But, no way
You can’t always have it all

Maybe we just weren’t in sync
