[Verse 1 - soft, minimal, intimate]
You said you’d call me later
I said yeah… that’s fine
We talked like it was nothing
Like we still had time
Didn’t hear it fading
In the way you said goodbye
Didn’t know that moment
Was the last time
Everything felt normal
Just another night
Didn’t know forever
Was running out of time
---
[Pre-Chorus - light build, tension rising]
Now it keeps repeating
Every word, every line
If I could go back
I’d stop it this time
---
[Chorus - emotional, fuller, drums enter]
I didn’t know that was the last time
Didn’t see it as goodbye
Thought I had forever
Now I’m out of time
If I knew the ending
I would’ve held on tight
I didn’t know that was the last time
I’d hear your voice that night
---
[Verse 2 - stripped back, reflective]
You said you’d see me soon
Like you always did
I didn’t stop to question
Any part of it
Now I sit in silence
Replaying everything
Trying to find a warning
In the smallest things
You don’t get a second
To go back and try
Some moments disappear
Without a sign
---
[Pre-Chorus - stronger build]
Now it’s all just echoes
Running through my mind
Every “see you later”
Was a last goodbye
---
[Chorus - bigger, more intensity]
I didn’t know that was the last time
Didn’t see it as goodbye
Thought I had forever
Now I’m out of time
If I knew the ending
I would’ve held on tight
I didn’t know that was the last time
I’d hear your voice that night
---
[Bridge - stripped down, no drums, emotional]
We never feel it slipping
Till it’s already gone
We never hear the silence
Till we’re all alone
We say it like it’s nothing
Like it’s just a day
But some doors close forever
And take it all away
---
[Pause - near silence]
(soft)
I thought there’d be more time…
(soft)
I was wrong…
---
[Final Chorus - biggest, full emotion]
I didn’t know that was the last time
Didn’t see it as goodbye
Thought I had forever
Now I’m out of time
If I knew the ending
I would’ve held on tight
I didn’t know that was the last time
I’d hear your voice that night
---
[Outro - gradual fade, soft delivery]
You said you’d call me later…
I said yeah…
that’s fine…
