Lost Time Lyrics
[Verse 1]
The sky is grey, the trees are pink
It’s almost spring and I can’t wait and I can’t think
The sidewalk’s paved with petals like a wedding aisle
I wonder how long it would take to walk eight hundred miles
[Pre-Chorus]
To say I do, I did, I will, I would
I’m not sorry, not certain, not perfect, not good
[Chorus]
But I love you, and every day
That I knew and didn’t say
Is lost time
And I’m knocking down your door
‘Cause I’m trying to make up for
Lost time
[Verse 2]
Wish you were here
Wish I was there
I wish that we could have a place that we could share
Not only stolen moments in abandoned halls
Quiet touch in elevators and bathroom stalls
[Pre-Chorus]
But I will, I would, I did, I do
For the thrill, for my health, for myself, for you
[Chorus]
‘Cause I love you, and every day
That I knew and didn’t say
Is lost time
Knocking down your door
‘Cause I’m trying to make up for
Lost time
Nothing lasts forever but let’s see how far we get
So when it comes my time to lose you
I’ll have made the most of it
[Bridge]
Our formal attire
On the floor
In a pile
In the morning
I will fold it while you get ready for work, I hear you
Singing in the shower, it’s the song I showed you years ago
It’s nice to know you listen to it after all this time
I put your pearls on the dresser with your 60 day chip
And your broken gold chain, your unpaid parking ticket
I notice everything about you, I can’t help it
It’s not a choice, it’s been this way since we met
[Outro]
‘Cause I love you, and every day
That I knew and didn’t say
Is a crying shame
It’s a crime
A waste of space
