Love Lost in Time 2
R&B
Lyrics
Description
We were kids in worn out sweaters Laughing till the street lights came
You were drawing hearts in margins Underlining just my name
Now there′re no books in our shoebox Dusty in my childhood room
Funny how a folded paper Still can′t pull the air from you
You′re a life I never lived in You′re a house I never bought
If I could press rewind Would you still reach for my hand?
Or are we love lost in time Scattered pieces in the sand
Saw your face on someone′s phone screen Birthday drinks and rented glow
There′s a stranger with an arm Where my arm used to go
I still keep your old umbrella Leading by the front door frame
Waiting for a storm that needs you Waiting for the changing rain
This is love lost in time Like a letter never sent
All the words on my tongue Turn to ghost and they relent
If I could press rewind Would you still reach for my hand?
Or are we love lost in time Scattered pieces in the sand
Oh, I′ve rehearsed a hundred versions Of the day I let you deceive
Every slay I never uttered Every truth I made you grieve
You′re a life I never lived in You′re a house I never bought
But I walk those empty hallways In the quiet of my thoughts
This is love lost in time Like a letter never sent
All the words on my tongue Turn to ghost and they relent
If I could press rewind Would you still reach for my hand?
Or are we love lost in time Scattered pieces in the sand
Oh, I′ve rehearsed a hundred versions Of the day I let you deceive
Every slay I never uttered Every truth I made you grieve
You′re a life I never lived in You′re a house I never bought
But I walk those empty hallways In the quiet of my thoughts
This is love lost in time Like a letter never sent
All the words on my tongue Turn to ghost and they relent
