Sometimes, I wish

Sometimes I wish my back didn't hurt as much when I drive; Sometimes I wish I hadn't had to drive to Hamilton and back tonight. Sometimes I wish I could still light up while waiting for Tessa so we could go home; Sometimes I wish I could have, one, just one; Sometimes I wish the addiction wouldn't lie to me.

Sometimes I wish Christmas was already over; Sometimes I wish I was a child and Christmas was still magic. Sometimes I wish I'd never started smoking; Sometimes I wish I was starting my quit next week. Sometimes I wish I could have, one, just one; Sometimes I wish the addiction wouldn't lie to me.

Sometimes I wish my friends on here wouldn't have their own problems quitting; Sometimes I wish the addiction wouldn't lie to them; Sometimes I wish I didn't have to be strong for them. Sometimes I wish I could have, one, just one like I tell my friends. Sometimes I wish the addiction wouldn't lie to me.

Sometimes I wish I could climb into bed and pull the covers over my head. Sometimes I wish it was only sometimes.

Sometimes ... Often ... Always ...
