[Verse 1]
Waited so long, thought you'd never come
You proved me wrong 'cause I don't know where it felt so right
If I could go, go back in time
What I would do is love you sooner

[Pre-Chorus]
I wish I was there for you
Wish I was holding you closer than close every day of your life
I wish I was there for you
And I wish that you were there for me too

[Chorus]
I wish I was there for you (There for you, there for you, there for you)
(There for you, there for you)
I wish I was there for you (There for you, there for you, there for you)
(There for you, there for you)

[Post-Chorus]
There for you, there for you, there for you
There for you, there for you, there for you
I wish I was there for you and I wish that you were there for me too
There for you, there for you, there for you

[Instrumental Break]
[Verse 2]
I lose my mind, going back in time
Were you mine, oh, mine? Oh-oh-oh, yeah
So many years, so many tears, wishing that you were over here
Maybe that's how it needed to be for you to get to me

[Pre-Chorus]
I wish I was there for you
Wish I was holding you closer than close every day of your life
I wish I was there for you
'Cause when we're together, there's so much to love, there's so little time
I wish I was there for you
Wish I was holding you closer than close every day of your life
I wish I was there for you
And I wish that you were there for me too

[Chorus]
I wish I was there for you (There for you, there for you, there for you)
(There for you, there for you)
I wish I was there for you (There for you, there for you, there for you)
(There for you, there for you)

[Post-Chorus]
There for you, there for you, there for you
There for you, there for you, there for you
I wish I was there for you and I wish that you were there for me too
There for you, there for you, there for you
[Outro]
Hey, hey, hey
Hey, hey, hey
Hey, hey, hey
Hey, hey, hey
