[Verse]
She loved him too early with a heart so wide
Dreams painted in colors she couldn’t hide
But his heart was a stranger lost in its state
She held out her hand but he loved her too late
[Chorus]
Oh the clock kept ticking but they couldn’t relate
Time played a cruel joke sealed their fate
Yet somehow in the wreckage they’re still pretending
This tangled mess has a beautiful ending
[Verse 2]
He wandered in shadows while she lit the flame
She whispered his name but he played his game
Her tears fell like rain as she waited for years
He woke up too late to the sound of her tears
[Chorus]
Oh the clock kept ticking but they couldn’t relate
Time played a cruel joke sealed their fate
Yet somehow in the wreckage they’re still pretending
This tangled mess has a beautiful ending
[Bridge]
The scars tell a story etched deep in their skin
Of love that was fragile and life’s cruel spin
But even in heartbreak there’s something they find
A flicker of love that refuses to die
[Chorus]
Oh the clock kept ticking but they couldn’t relate
Time played a cruel joke sealed their fate
Yet somehow in the wreckage they’re still pretending
This tangled mess has a beautiful ending
