  • It's 2 A.M. in your car
    Windows down, I pass my street
    The memories start
    You say it's in the past
    You drive straight ahead
    You're thinking that I hate you now
    'Cause you still don't know what I never said

    I wish you would come back
    Wish I'd never hung up the phone like I did
    I wish you knew that
    I'd never forget you as long as I'd live
    And I wish you were right here, right now
    It's all good
    I wish you would

    It's 2 AM in my room
    Headlights pass the window pane
    I think of you
    We're a crooked love
    In a straight line down
    Makes you wanna run and hide
    Then it makes you turn right back around

    I wish you would come back
    Wish I'd never hung up the phone like I did
    I wish you knew that
    I'd never forget you as long as I'd live
    And I wish you were right here, right now
    It's all good
    I wish you would

    I wish we could go back
    And remember what we were fighting for
    And I wish you knew that
    I miss you too much to be mad anymore
    And I wish you were right here, right now
    It's all good
    I wish you would

    I-I-I-I, I-I-I wish, I wish, I
    I-I-I-I, I-I-I wish, I wish, I
    I-I-I-I, I-I-I wish, I wish, I

    You always knew how to push my buttons (I-I-I-I, I-I-I wish, I wish, I)
    You gave me everything and nothing (I-I-I-I, I-I-I wish, I wish, I)
    This mad, mad love makes you come running (I-I-I-I, I-I-I wish, I wish, I)
    Stand back where you stood (I-I-I-I, I-I-I wish, I wish, I)
    I wish you would, I wish you would (I-I-I-I, I-I-I wish, I wish, I)

    I wish you would, I wish you would (I-I-I-I, I-I-I wish, I wish, I)
    (I wish you would, I wish you would) (I wish, I wish, I)

    2 A.M., here we are
    See your face
    Hear my voice in the dark
    We're a crooked love
    In a straight line down
    Makes you wanna run and hide
    But it made us turn right back around

    I wish you would come back
    Wish I'd never hung up the phone like I did
    I wish you knew that
    I'd never forget you as long as I'd live
    And I wish you were right here, right now
    It's all good
    I wish you would

    I wish you would come back
    Wish I'd never hung up the phone like I did
    I wish you knew that
    I'd never forget you as long as I'd live
    And I wish you were right here, right now
    It's all good
    I wish you would

    I wish we could go back
    And remember what we were fighting for
    And I wish you knew that
    I miss you too much to be mad anymore
    And I wish you were right here, right now
    It's all good
    I wish you would

    You always knew how to push my buttons (I-I-I-I, I-I-I wish, I wish, I)
    You gave me everything and nothing (I-I-I-I, I-I-I wish, I wish, I)
    This mad, mad love makes you come rushing (I-I-I-I, I-I-I wish, I wish, I)
    Stand back where you stood (I-I-I-I, I-I-I wish, I wish, I)
    I wish you would, I wish you would (I-I-I-I, I-I-I wish, I wish, I)

    (I wish you would, I wish you would) (I-I-I-I, I-I-I wish, I wish, I)
    I wish you would, I wish you would
    (I wish you would, I wish you would) (I-I-I-I, I-I-I wish, I wish, I)
    (I wish you would, I wish you would) (I wish I, I wish I)

    I-I-I-I, I-I-I wish, I wish, I
    I-I-I-I, I-I-I wish, I wish, I (I wish you would) Writer/s: Jack Antonoff, Taylor Swift
