[Verse 1]
Coffee gone cold on the table
Sun’s already halfway high
Every plan I swore I’d follow
Drifts across that morning sky
[Chorus]
Feels like time slipping away
Like water right through my hands
I’m begging these hours to stay
But they don’t care for my plans
I wanna hold it
Hold it
Hold it while it’s leaving
Make the best of every breath
Before it’s gone and I’m still grieving
[Verse 2]
Old friend’s name on my phone screen
I say “later
” then it fades
How many chances did I bargain
How many calls I never made
[Chorus]
Feels like time slipping away
Like water right through my hands
I’m begging these hours to stay
But they don’t care for my plans
I wanna hold it
Hold it
Hold it while it’s leaving
Make the best of every breath
Before it’s gone and I’m still grieving
[Bridge]
So I’ll run out in the rain
Let it soak right through this coat
Laugh too loud
Love too hard
Speak the words stuck in my throat
[Chorus]
Feels like time slipping away
Like water right through my hands
I’m begging these hours to stay
But they don’t care for my plans
I’m gonna hold it
Hold it
Hold it while it’s leaving
Make the best of every breath
While I’m here
While I’m still breathing
