[Verse]
I saw the sun slip through your eyes
A fading gold
A soft surprise
Every shadow
It bent for you
The world stood still
The clocks all froze
A quiet hum beneath our toes
How could I leave this view
[Prechorus]
But time's a thief
It pulls
It steals
And love is all it ever heals
[Chorus]
Before you go
Before you fade
Let me hold the light you gave
Before you go
Before you're gone
Let me sing where you belong
Before you go
Oh
Before you go
[Verse 2]
We traced the stars with tangled hands
A universe in shifting sands
Every heartbeat a melody
The ocean whispered tales of old
But none as warm
As pure
As bold
As the way you looked at me
