Lyrics

[Intro]
Hey
[Instrumental]
What if we could go back?
We could take the words back
You could take my love back
And brush my hair behind my ear
I don't know what you wanted
I tried to be so perfect
I thought that it was worth it
To let myself just disappear
[PreChorus]
You come to me in dreams at night
(You come to me in dreams at night)
I wake up and I see the light
[Chorus]
Sometimes, I wish that I could change
But not for me, for you
So we could be together forever
But I know, I know that I won't change for you
'Cause where were you for me
When I needed someone, when I needed someone?
When I needed you, you (Hey)
When I needed you, you (Hey)
[Verse 1]
Once upon a time, I
Thought you were a hero
I waited for you all night
I closed my eyes and slept for years
You kiss me like a sunrise
My feet up to my forehead
I felt it like a goodbye
I'm not myself
[Chorus]
Sometimes, I wish that I could change
But not for me, for you
So we could be together forever
But I know, I know that I won't change for you
'Cause where were you for me
When I needed someone, when I needed someone?
When I needed you, you (Hey)
When I needed you, you (Hey)
You come to me in dreams at night
You come to me in dreams at night
[Bridge]
I don't want to work it out
I'm not goin' to work it out
I don't want to work it out
No, I'm not goin' to, still
[Chorus]
Sometimes, I wish that I could change
But not for me, for you
So we could be together forever
But I know, I know that I won't change for you
'Cause where were you for me
When I needed someone, when I needed someone?
When I needed (Hey)
When I needed (Hey, hey)
When I needed you, you (Hey)
When I needed you, you (Hey)
When I needed you
[Outro]
Hey (Hey)
Hey
Hey (Hey)
When I needed
