Combs, Luke - Be Careful What You Wish For Lyrics
Couldn't wait to ride out of that one horse town
Didn't see no use in sticking around
I was green and busting at the seams to leave
I was sitting on G, waiting on O
The day I hit eighteen, I hit the road
But sometimes things ain't what you think they're gonna be
What you want ain't always what you need
Don't know what you got 'til it's gone
And you're out on your own
All you want is what you can't get back
Once you let it go, then you know what you have
Don't hold a candle to what you had
Sometimes what you think you'll find
So be careful what you wish for
She was holding on just a little too tight
Talked a little too much about the rest of our lives
I broke her heart thinking freedom would set me free
Well sometimes things ain't what you think they're gonna be
Don't know what you got 'til it's gone
And you're out on your own
All you want is what you can't get back
Once you let it go, then you know what you have
Don't hold a candle to what you had
Sometimes what you think you'll find
It ain't quite what real life has in store
So be careful what you wish for
'Cause these city lights can't shine quite like the stars
I wish I could wish her back into my arms
Don't know what you got 'til it's gone
And you're out on your own
All you want is what you can't get back
Once you let it go, then you know what you have
Don't hold a candle to what you had
Sometimes what you think you'll find
It ain't quite what real life has in store
And you can't get her back no more
So be careful what you wish for
Be careful what you wish for

Combs, Luke Be Careful What You Wish For Comments
i love song
That girl might be gone ! Find a better man
New favorite song. HELLO
I literally hate all country except luke Combs!!!!!❤️❤️❤️❤️ You are amazingly good!!!
This is a nice song with meaning. At least it's not about getting drunk in some bar and jumping in bed with the first STD you can find, and then pretending it was the true love that got away "new" country songs they've come out with. I miss the 90's country songs I learned to love in my late teens/early 20's
The most underrated song of Luke's and my favorite.
Always be careful what you wish for
One of his best
This song and refrigerator door are my favorite songs rn
Kinda funny how true every lyric of every luke combs song is. This song however should be taught in school or something, you wont find a more accurate truth to life in any history book.
Adam agreed
c njkscdikcjksjkhskjdhukjshkjhujuhghjghjghcjbxhjghydutg
Very true
Truthful song
That the country that we should always hear
I love this song
Ty luke combs
Ty merry Christmas and happy new year too
I guess be careful what you wish for's all I meant when i said, what you see is what you get
Couldn't wait to ride out of that one horse town
Didn't see no use in sticking around
I was green and busting at the seams to leave
I was sitting on G, waiting on O
The day I hit eighteen, I hit the road
Traded that county maintain for a four lane city street
But sometimes things ain't what you think they're gonna be
What you want ain't always what you need
Don't know what you got 'til it's gone and you're out on your own
All you want is what you can't get back
Once you let it go, then you know what you have
Don't hold a candle to what you had
Sometimes what you think you'll find
It ain't quite what real life has in store
So be careful what you wish for
She was holding on just a little too tight
Talked a little too much about the rest of our lives
I broke her heart thinking freedom would set me free
Well sometimes things ain't what you think they're gonna be
Don't know what you got 'til it's gone and you're out on your own
All you want is what you can't get back
Once you let it go, then you know what you have
Don't hold a candle to what you had
Sometimes what you think you'll find
It ain't quite what real life has in store
So be careful what you wish for
'Cause these city lights can't shine quite like the stars
I wish I could wish her back into my arms
Don't know what you got 'til it's gone And you're out on your own
All you want is what you can't get back
Once you let it go, then you know what you have
Don't hold a candle to what you had
Sometimes what you think you'll find
It ain't quite what real life has in store
And you can't get her back no more
So be careful what you wish for
Be careful what you wish for

such a powerful beautiful song. makes me wanna sing at the top of my lungs and curl up in a ball and reminisce all at once 💘
i used to wish for a baby blue pickup truck with bullet holes, cuz i thought it was totally country... be careful what you wish for cuz when the bullets are real, it isn't fun anymore... lol :(
Yep. This song right here 👌👍. Be careful what YOU wish for. Lol.
Y'all be careful what u wish for there is bad choices so listen to this song and sink it in
I broke up with my girlfriend of 6 and a half years because I thought I wanted out and wanted to see the other side. About two months later I had my dose of the “other side” and missed her. I messaged her on a Monday and we briefly talked and asked how each other were. I had it planned in my head how I was gonna slowly get her back. The day after I messaged her, she got into a relationship with someone else. Yeah lol let’s just say that was a rough time. But I was shitty during the time I thought I wanted out and I’m living with that. They’re still together and if they stay together, I wish nothing but great things for them. She seems happy, but Ive yet to catch my second wind. I’m hoping to be joining the national guard soon, maybe then I can get my chance to start over.
Hey brother , it’ll be fine. Thanks for supporting your country 🇺🇸
Stay strong...I did the similar thing...And as I learned...The grasp isnt greener on the other side...lol
Live and learn my ftiend!!°
My girl broke up with me and she told everyone and she made me believe i broke up with her until i read the text msgs she didnt even want discuss it in person so my ex had alot of communication issues. So dont feel bad man maybe it was for the best.
Everything happens for a reason mabey you and her door was ment to close so you could open another
Wish Upon anyone?
Great music indeed, keep it up buddy
peps with roots want wings, & peps with wings want roots
Cant please them
Love this song! A job well done Luke! You're going to go a long way.
