Accidents
Wolfbird Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

All of the mistakes i made
All the ways that i f**ked up the plans i laid
All the times i showed up late
All the places i left when i should have stayed,

I know
Now i know
I know

All the chances i let by
All the accidents that dot the maps of my life
All of those long worthless nights
All the times that i know i didnt get it right, now i know

It brought me to you
All the sh*t i went through
It brought me to you
So i dont care what it took
All the sh*t i went through
It brought me to you,
Yea it got kinda rough
It seemed like hoping
Never mattered enough and then
It ended with me fallin in love





It brought me to you
