(Verse 1)
We met when the stars were out of line,
I swear you were a dream, but we missed the sign.
You had your heart, I had mine,
But both of us were lost in the wrong design.
I used to tell myself, "We’re meant to be,"
But the timing wasn’t right, couldn’t you see?
Now I’m just a story, half told,
A chapter in your past that I can’t hold.
(Pre-Chorus)
Right person, wrong time,
Such a sweet lie,
We both tried, but we couldn't deny,
The space between us was too wide.
(Chorus)
Right person, wrong time, that’s the biggest cope,
A reason to keep holding on, a thread of hope.
But we’re just stories in a book we never wrote,
And the timing’s always off, can’t catch the flow.
Maybe another life, another chance,
But right person, wrong time, just a last dance.
(Verse 2)
I remember the days we thought we'd find,
The perfect moment, when the stars aligned.
But you were busy, I was running late,
Now we’re both just standing at the edge of fate.
Maybe it’s me, or maybe it’s you,
Chasing something that we never could pursue.
I’ll carry this ghost of what we could’ve been,
A love story that never will begin.
(Pre-Chorus)
Right person, wrong time,
Such a sweet lie,
We both tried, but we couldn't deny,
The space between us was too wide.
(Chorus)
Right person, wrong time, that’s the biggest cope,
A reason to keep holding on, a thread of hope.
But we’re just stories in a book we never wrote,
And the timing’s always off, can’t catch the flow.
Maybe another life, another chance,
But right person, wrong time, just a last dance.
(Bridge)
I’ll carry your name in a song I’ll never sing,
You’ll stay in my heart, but time won’t let us cling.
And maybe in another world, we’d have been fine,
But in this one, it’s just you and I, running out of time.
(Chorus)
Right person, wrong time, that’s the biggest cope,
A reason to keep holding on, a thread of hope.
But we’re just stories in a book we never wrote,
And the timing’s always off, can’t catch the flow.
Maybe another life, another chance,
But right person, wrong time, just a last dance.
(Outro)
Right person, wrong time, that’s our fate,
A love that couldn’t wait.
