I Wish
Omaha Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
While you sit there changed(?)
All alone, call your own
I guess you wanted something more
You say he doesn't even care about you
Think it's all your fault but that's not true
'Cause all he's gonna do is break your heart
Even after all these lies
Sew me blind to the fact that he's no good for you
Wish I had the chance to make you see
All the things I wish that we could be
Oh, just so controlled
Try to keep your head up in the clouds
Never thought that this would all come crashing down
Oh, where is he now?
Where is he now?
(I wish that you were mine)
(Don't say that you don't think about me too)
'Cause you're somebody, always happy, but he brings you down
Everybody knows it, just but you block it out
All the colors you see shine on him so different now
All you've ever known are goodbyes
'Cause everyone you love leaves your side
Constant battles goin' on in your mind
Oh, if I lay the path when you're walking with me
Wish I had the chance to make you see
All the things I wish that we could be
Oh, just so controlled
Try to keep your head up in the clouds
Never thought that this would all come crashing down
Oh, where is he now?
I wish your eyes would open up and see
You call and say you're struggling to breathe
He's gonna break your heart
I saw this one comin' right from the start
Oh, where is he now?
When you're feelin' all alone
And you got nowhere to go
Just say the word, I'll be there right beside you
When your heart has had enough
And you're feelin' lost in love
Just say the word, I'll be there right beside you
When you're feelin' all alone
And you got nowhere to go
Just say the word, I'll be there right beside you
When your heart has had enough
And you're feelin' lost in love
Just say the word, I'll be there right beside you
Wish I had the chance to make you see
All the things I wish that we could be
Oh, just so controlled
Try to keep your head up in the clouds
Never thought that this would all come crashing down
Oh, where is he now?
I wish your eyes would open up and see
You call and say you're struggling to breathe
He's gonna break your heart
I saw this one comin' right from the start
Oh, where is he now?
The song "I Wish" by Omaha is a heart-wrenching ballad. The lyrics describe the singer's unrequited love for a woman who is in a toxic relationship with someone else. The singer tries to make the woman realize that her current partner does not care about her and will only end up breaking her heart. The woman, however, is blinded by her love for her partner, and her struggle to keep her head up in the clouds while constantly battling with her own mind. The singer wishes for the opportunity to make the woman realize the potential of the connection that they could share, but it has remained unfulfilled.
The verse "All this time, even after all these lies, sew me blind to the fact that he's no good for you" provides a sense of hopelessness and despair. The singer seems to be aware that the woman is aware of the truth, yet she chooses to ignore it because of her love for her partner. The chorus reiterates the singer's desire for the woman to recognize the true nature of her relationship and the potential that they could share if the woman were to open her eyes.
The song's message is a powerful plea for the woman to take control of her life and make decisions that are in her best interest. The lyrics convey the singer's frustration at the woman's inability to see that she is worthy of love and deserving of happiness.
Line by Line Meaning
And I'll just sit there waitin'
I'll wait patiently for you to see me
While you sit there changed(?)
While you're with someone else and have changed because of it
All alone, call your own
You're alone with your own thoughts and feelings
I guess you wanted something more
You were looking for something more fulfilling
You say he doesn't even care about you
You feel like he doesn't care about you
Think it's all your fault but that's not true
You blame yourself for his lack of affection, but it's not your fault
'Cause all he's gonna do is break your heart
He's only going to hurt you
All this time
Despite everything that's happened
Even after all these lies
Even though he's been dishonest
Sew me blind to the fact that he's no good for you
You refuse to see that he's not good for you
Wish I had the chance to make you see
I wish I could make you see how much better things could be with me
All the things I wish that we could be
All the possibilities for our relationship that I wish could happen
Oh, just so controlled
You have to be in control of your emotions and actions
Try to keep your head up in the clouds
Try to be positive and optimistic
Never thought that this would all come crashing down
You didn't expect things to turn out this way
Oh, where is he now?
You wonder where he is and what he's doing
'Cause you're somebody, always happy, but he brings you down
You're usually a happy person, but he brings you down emotionally
Everybody knows it, just but you block it out
Other people see that he's not good for you, but you ignore their warnings
All the colors you see shine on him so different now
Your perspective of him has changed and he seems less appealing
All you've ever known are goodbyes
You're used to people leaving you and it's become a pattern in your life
'Cause everyone you love leaves your side
You feel like everyone you love eventually abandons you
Constant battles goin' on in your mind
You're always struggling mentally with your feelings for him
Oh, if I lay the path when you're walking with me
If we were together, I would guide and support you through everything
I wish your eyes would open up and see
I wish you would realize the truth about how he's treating you
You call and say you're struggling to breathe
You reach out to me when you're feeling overwhelmed
He's gonna break your heart
He's going to hurt you emotionally
I saw this one comin' right from the start
I knew this was going to happen from the beginning
When you're feelin' all alone
When you're lonely and have nowhere to turn
And you got nowhere to go
When you feel like you have nowhere to turn for help
Just say the word, I'll be there right beside you
I'll always be there for you if you need me
When your heart has had enough
When you're emotionally exhausted
And you're feelin' lost in love
When you don't know what to do about your feelings for him
Wish I had the chance to make you see
I wish I could convince you to choose me instead
Oh, where is he now?
You wonder where he is and what he's doing
