too late for us

Title: “Too Late for Us”

(Verse 1)

I said goodbye when I thought I was strong

Thought we were right, but the timing was wrong

Packed all my feelings and walked out the door

But now I'm not sure what I left you for

(Pre-Chorus)

You're laughing now in someone else’s light

I'm holding hands, but it don’t feel right

I thought I’d be fine, thought love would restart

But you never left my heart

(Chorus)

It’s too late for us, but I still dream

Of all the things that we could’ve been

You’ve got her smile, I’ve got his touch

But none of it feels like love that much

I let you go, now I miss you so

And it hurts that we’ll never know

If we were just lost in time…

Or really meant to say goodbye

(Verse 2)

I see you dancing, your eyes shine so clear

I smile but whisper, “I wish you were here”

We made our choices, we both moved ahead

But sometimes I lie awake in your bed… in my head

(Pre-Chorus)

They hold us close but they’re not who we need

We gave it up before we could bleed

I should’ve held on when it got tough

But now you’re just not mine to love

(Chorus)

It’s too late for us, but I still dream

Of all the things that we could’ve been

You’ve got her smile, I’ve got his touch

But none of it feels like love that much

I let you go, now I miss you so

And it hurts that we’ll never know

If we were just lost in time…

Or really meant to say goodbye

(Bridge)

If I could turn back the clock

Would you take me back, or would you just walk?

We both wear our rings of regret

On fingers that never forget

(Final Chorus – soft to soaring)

It’s too late for us, but I still care

I see you happy, but it’s hard to bear

You’ve got her smile, I’ve got his hand

But I still don’t quite understand

Why I let go, why I said no

When everything in me said don’t

Now all we have is a silent sky

Where we once learned how to fly…

(Outro – gentle)

I loved you then

I love you still

But we both have someone

And we never will…
