[Female Intro] [Female Vocal] (We were kids with borrowed dreams, Lockers slammed and hearts too loud, I felt everything too deep, You wore armor made of proud, I loved you wrong, you loved me thin, We broke before we knew the cost, I held a goodbye you never knew, And learned how to live with loss.)
[male Intro] [Male Vocal] (I was young and chasing noise, Didn’t know what mattered yet, I mistook the shine for gold, I Didn’t see the love I met, I grew up through broken vows, my Kids’ shoes lined by the door, I Learned a man is what he gives, and Not what he’s giving for.)
[Pre Chorus]
[Female Vocal] (We kept checking in through the years)
[Strong Male Vocal] (Like a thread we couldn’t break.)
[both vocals] (Every road that led us wrong, Still knew the way)
[Chorus] (We were always crossing time, Just missing the right year, Two hearts learning how to break, Before they learned how to stay here, We weren’t wrong, we weren’t lost, Just not ready then, Every road we walked alone, Led us back again.)
[short Guitar solo]
[female Verse] [Female Vocal] (I lost my world piece by piece, all Names carved into stone, I Carried grief into the dark, learning to cry alone, You were the voice that said “breathe” When my strength was almost gone, You didn’t fix me, didn’t rush, You just stayed on.)
[male Verse] [Male Vocal] (I saw the tired in your eyes, Heard the words you didn’t say, I Knew you needed something real, Not someone who’d walk away, I didn’t need to save you, you were already ok, I just stood beside the fire, So you didn’t burn alone in the pain.)
[Final Chorus] (We were always crossing time, Just missing the right year, Two hearts learning how to break, Before they learned how to stay here, We weren’t wrong, we weren’t lost, Just not ready then, Every road we walked alone, Led us back again, Now we stand with open hands, And finally see, We were never a mistake, We were becoming who we needed to be.)
[Bridge]
(If we lose the house, the ground, the plan, If the world falls through , I’d still choose this life that hurts less, As long as it’s with you, All the waiting, all the scars, Finally make sense, Some loves are written early on, But lived on together later on.)
[Outro]
(We didn’t miss our moment, Love , It just hadn’t come yet, We were meant to be together, Just not yet)
