Friends is the 2nd track on Ian McConnell’s 2022 album “Season 1”. it details how he wishes life could be and most importantly of all how he wishes that him and an ex-lover/friend could’ve continued their friendship even when everything between them was over
[Verse 1]
I wish coffee made your teeth whiter, I wish porn was good for your brain
I wish artists didn't need money, I wish billionaires were less vain
I wish cheese were not so expensive, I wish doing taxes was fun
I wish one night stands were romantic, I wish guys could cum more than once
I wish ice cream made you more healthy, I wish weed was good for your heart
I wish exercise were less sweaty, I wish drinks were cheaper in bars
I wish we could all be less racist, and I wish the Bible made sense
I wish phones were not so addictive
[Chorus]
And I wish we coulda stayed friends
When our never-meant-to-be relationship ended
All the life we lived and now we're strangers again
All the time we put in, all the things that we've been
[Verse 2]
I wish I had known what I wanted, I wish you had never got mean
I wish we had started off honest, I wish I had made you feel seen
I wish you were less narcissistic, I wish I had known how to help
Wish you could've seen what I loved in you instead of hating yourself
I wish I had met you when Covid wasn't fucking up our whole lives
I wish both of us were less lonely from our months of staying inside
I wish I were more understanding, I wish you were way less intense
Maybe then you could still stand me
[Chorus]
‘Cause I wish we coulda stayed friends
When our never-meant-to-be relationship ended
All the life we lived and now we're strangers again
All the time we put in, all the things that we've been
[Bridge]
And it isn't all your fault, but some of it is
And some of it's mine
And some of it's just
Bad timing and shitty circumstances
[Verse 3]
I wish Amazon were less evil, I wish climate change were a hoax
Wish I didn't have to be sad as fuck to write my funniest jokes
I wish you would someday forgive me, I swear I was trying my best
And I know it wasn't an option
[Chorus]
But I wish we coulda stayed friends
When our never-meant-to-be relationship ended
All the life we lived and now we're strangers again
All the time we put in, all the things that we've been
I just wish we coulda stayed friends
When our never-meant-to-be relationship ended
All the life we lived and now we're strangers again
All the time we put in, all the things that we've been
I just wish we coulda stayed
Just wish we coulda stayed
