LYRICS:
(Verse 1)
I know what you're thinkin'
We were goin' down
I could feel us sinkin'
But then I came around
(Verse 2)
And everyone I've loved before
Flashed before my eyes
And nothin' mattered anymore
I looked into the sky
(Pre Chorus)
Well I wanted something better man
I wished for something new
And I wanted something beautiful
I wished for something true
Been lookin' for a reason man
Something to lose
(Chorus)
When the wheels come down (When the wheels come down)
When the wheels touch ground (When the wheels touch ground)
And you feel like it's all over
There's another round for you
When the wheels come down (When the wheels come down)
(Post Chorus)
(Verse 3)
I know your head is spinnin'
Broken hearts will mend
This is our beginning
Comin to an end
(Pre Chorus)
Well, you wanted something better man
You wished for something new
Well, you wanted something beautiful
Wished for something true
Been lookin for a reason man
Something to lose
(Chorus)
When the wheels come down (When the wheels come down)
When the wheels touch ground (When the wheels touch ground)
And you feel like it's all over
There's another round for you
When the wheels come down (When the wheels come down)
Oh!
(Post Chorus x 2)
(Solo)
(Chorus)
When the wheels come down (When the wheels come down)
When the wheels touch ground (When the wheels touch ground)
And you feel like it's all over
There's another round for you
(Chorus Out)
When the wheels come down (When the wheels come down)
When the wheels come down (When the wheels come down)
When the wheels touch ground (When the wheels touch ground)
And you feel like it's all over
There's another round for you
When the wheels come down (When the wheels come down)
