Sun shines through the window pane Another day begins again But in my mind, I'm far away Lost in thoughts of yesterday A gentle breeze, a whispered word A memory, softly stirred A feeling deep, I can't explain Like sunshine dancing in the rain Oh, this longing in my heart Tears my world apart A fragile hope, a whispered plea Come back to me, come back to me Empty streets and silent cars Reflecting all the faded stars I search for you in every face A love I can't erase, can't replace A gentle breeze, a whispered word A memory, softly stirred A feeling deep, I can't explain Like sunshine dancing in the rain Oh, this longing in my heart Tears my world apart A fragile hope, a whispered plea Come back to me, come back to me Is it real, or just a dream? A waking vision, it would seem But either way, I'll hold it tight And chase away the lonely night Oh, this longing in my heart Tears my world apart A fragile hope, a whispered plea Come back to me, come back to me Come back to me... Come back... To me...
Something slipped, a subtle smirk In the haze, saw the cracks lurk Morning eyes, your cover thin Sheets tangled, sharper grin I tiptoe, fearless, through missing parts Found the glitch in your second heart A pause, your pulse betrays Lie laced with affection, always I figured you out, so clear now Underneath secrets, still found out I figured you out, I see through now Truth slips out, always somehow I figured you out I figured you out Empty calls, static words drop Early hour, signals caught Shadowed lines, tracing clues All these riddles, old excuses Same story, told with softer sound Three times promised, always let me down I followed the fragments, pieced the doubt But I won’t let your mystery drown me out I figured you out, so clear now Underneath secrets, still found out I figured you out, I see through now Truth slips out, always somehow I figured you out I figured you out Bittersweet unravel, each confession Can’t disguise it, can’t control the question Still breaking, still aching, still holding on You play it off, but I know what’s wrong Bit by bit, it all comes undone I figured you out, so clear now Underneath secrets, still found out I figured you out, I see through now Truth slips out, always somehow I figured you out I figured you out Shadow games won’t pull me in I figured you out, no need to pretend I figured you out
Blue edges on the morning Cracks in the calm, chasing sleep Soft silver floating, I reach for you Yesterday's dream, slipping underneath Moving slow, secret signs I can't quite find Fading lines Small words lost between the spaces Hold on, let the season spin If I could make time rewind Start the storyline Make time rewind Play that part, replay your smile If I could make time rewind Turn every tear to light Make time rewind Keep you here for a little while Turn, turn Back, back Turn, turn Back, back Midnight faded, all my colors stray Empty hands, remembering I keep waiting for another way Every minute blends into memory I remember, remember, remember When you called my name Only silence stays I stumble, softly step Silent sky, still I try If I could make time rewind Start the storyline Make time rewind Play that part, replay your smile If I could make time rewind Turn every tear to light Make time rewind Keep you here for a little while Turn, turn Back, back Turn, turn Back, back Wish for morning, just to begin again Count back three, count back two Count back one and then Wish for another chance, another trace Still my hands search for your face If I could make time rewind Start the storyline Make time rewind Play that part, replay your smile If I could make time rewind Turn every tear to light Make time rewind Keep you here for a little while Turn, turn Back, back Turn, turn Back, back Softly, the memory unravels Softly, the memory lets go Time, just once—let it be slow

Late again Under moonlaced haze Fumbling for reasons Words stained in my head I keep painting Pictures undone One breath Too slow Maybe I missed it Maybe I stayed Maybe I wished away what I made Tell me I Tell me I Tell me I could forget Slipped time Heavy lines All these soft regrets Tell me why Tell me why All the faces fade Left behind, can't rewind All these soft regrets Drifting through Old letters Faded script and silent spells I say your name Lost in spaces Too soon— Or too late? Traces still tethered to my sweater Cluttered drawer, I keep them close One word then another Always almost Never said most Maybe I called you Maybe I ran Maybe I craved the if, not the plan Tell me I Tell me I Tell me I could forget Slipped time Heavy lines All these soft regrets Tell me why Tell me why All the faces fade Left behind, can't rewind All these soft regrets Fall and fall through silver air Wait for a world that isn’t there Lines I draw in water, gone Gone before the dawn Tell me I Tell me I Tell me I could forget Slipped time Heavy lines All these soft regrets Tell me why Tell me why All the faces fade Left behind, can't rewind All these soft regrets All these, all these Soft regrets All these, all these Soft regrets
Midnight falls Room breathing a silver glow I can’t move Four fingers trace the window Time stops One exhale, then another thought I remember—your name Held under my tongue Sometimes I close my eyes Sometimes I hide from light I search for something lost Always waiting Rain runs down the glass Stilled in place, I let hours pass You’re everywhere but near Leaving me here When time stops, the world just hangs Shadows freezing, caught in place Everything waits for your return When time stops, I call your name When time stops, the air stands still Wish I could hold, could hold you still Slip away Slip away Empty streets Wet pavement, a secret scene Silent lines Streetlights painting what might’ve been Time stops Softest shiver through paper skin I remember—the rush Now only hush All we had is folded small All we said, now barely recall I trace the cracks in my palm Longing lingers I try not to speak Try not to break the streak But night’s gentle hand Makes me understand When time stops, the world just hangs Shadows freezing, caught in place Everything waits for your return When time stops, I call your name When time stops, the air stands still Wish I could hold, could hold you still Slip away Slip away Maybe I’ll find you Maybe I’ll feel you Maybe I’m just lost here Maybe I’ll find you Maybe I’ll feel you Maybe I’m just lost here (lost here) When time stops, the world just hangs Shadows freezing, caught in place Everything waits for your return When time stops, I call your name When time stops, the air stands still Wish I could hold, could hold you still Slip away Slip away Slip away
Nighttime traffic, quiet calls Voicemails I can’t delete Pages turning, I stall One word—repeat Did I miss it? Blurred lines Looking back, do you recall Truth left trailing Never said it, at all Did I fail your test Did I fall, confess All the answers left Pages scattered, yes Did I fail your test Did I lose my place Puzzle pieces pressed Lost inside your maze Did I, did I Did I fail Did I, did I Did I fail your test Second chances, silent steps Maybe I missed the cue Maybe I, maybe I kept Waiting for something new Slow confession Sharp regret, drawn breath Two words I never sent Still waiting on the fence Did I fail your test Did I fall, confess All the answers left Pages scattered, yes Did I fail your test Did I lose my place Puzzle pieces pressed Lost inside your maze If I could rewind, realign, restart Would you open your heart so wide If I could, if I could—go back in time Would we ever cross the same divide Did I fail your test Did I fall, confess All the answers left Pages scattered, yes Did I fail your test Did I lose my place Puzzle pieces pressed Lost inside your maze Did I, did I Did I fail Did I, did I Did I fail your test
Slow shine of silver keys Jacket pocket tucked, my routine Maps of memories Worn corners creased A part of my inventory Lost notes, found receipts Faded ticket stubs One day only You are a part of my inventory Kept where no one else sees Under layers, hidden close You follow me You’re stitched in, irreplaceably A part of my inventory Turning pages quietly You follow me Blue ink marks your initials Pencil tracing faded roads Photobooth pictures, old You know Magnet in my wallet, folded dollars Reminder rattle in my coat Still holding on Still holding You are a part of my inventory Kept where no one else sees Under layers, hidden close You follow me You’re stitched in, irreplaceably A part of my inventory Turning pages quietly You follow me Never traded, never tossed I keep what matters most Bit of you in every pocket In every pocket, stays Polished stone from the shoreline Puzzle piece, mismatched heart List of lies and overdue goodbyes Always you And every time I fumble Fingers find a piece of you You are a part of my inventory Kept where no one else sees Under layers, hidden close You follow me You’re stitched in, irreplaceably A part of my inventory Turning pages quietly You follow me Part by part, I carry Piece by piece, I stay A part of my inventory A part of me
Shattered frame on my bedroom floor Last night’s laugh, last night no more Collide, avoid, admit defeat Slipping out silently Small words left Cold phone screen My mind skips Chasing scenes Never nothing, everything pulled apart Scatter pieces, tracing scars I’m broken Lost under your spell again I’m hoping Dreams let me pretend I’m broken Lay me down in the blue I’m broken And it all points back to you Summer shadows stretched so far Drifting fast behind your car Promises sink, hollow and thin Running circles, round again Long roads Fractured light Still I go Spinning night Hands that trembled, hearts that freeze Waiting for release I’m broken Lost under your spell again I’m hoping Dreams let me pretend I’m broken Lay me down in the blue I’m broken And it all points back to you Maybe I’ll mend tomorrow Maybe I’ll stay here Maybe I’ll start again Maybe disappear I’m broken Lost under your spell again I’m hoping Dreams let me pretend I’m broken Lay me down in the blue I’m broken And it all points back to you I’m broken I’m broken And it all points back to you I’m broken I’m broken And it all points back to you
Blank stare in the mirror Glass cold, hands colder still Tried talking to the silence Empty room, I freeze, I fill Faded shirt on my pillow I sleep alone, I shift, I move Shadow steps in my hallway Step by step, I lose My replacement walks in slow Your voice on their phone My replacement knows my lines Says the things I used to say My replacement calls your name You call them home, home again My replacement stays, you let them stay Stay, you let them stay Stay, you let them stay Silver rings on the table You left two, you took one Sunday sun through closed blinds Everything changed, undone I keep repeating mornings Different voices on repeat I hear my name, then nothing I’m incomplete My replacement walks in slow Your voice on their phone My replacement knows my lines Says the things I used to say My replacement calls your name You call them home, home again My replacement stays, you let them stay Stay, you let them stay Stay, you let them stay Sometimes I wonder Sometimes I wish away Sometimes I cover mirrors Sometimes I fade away Gone now, the memories linger Gone now, you hold another hand My replacement walks in slow Your voice on their phone My replacement knows my lines Says the things I used to say My replacement calls your name You call them home, home again My replacement stays, you let them stay Stay, you let them stay Stay, you let them stay
6AM street silent Footsteps rushing I collide Coffee cold, hands shaking One word Missed that train, again Another morning, running late Dry lips, blue sky waiting Eyes on the line before it's gone Always almost, never quite on time Minute after minute, slipping between your fingers I missed that train, missed that train You said you'd wait, you said you'd stay I missed that train, and now it's fading away Wait for me Wait for me Rain so sudden, shoes soaked through My phone keeps ringing off and on Long road, headlights glinting I chase, you stall Every morning, I promise, I try Grey clouds gather, city sigh But you move further, farther still Can't turn back, can't rewind at will Always almost, never quite on time Minute after minute, slipping between your fingers I missed that train, missed that train You said you'd wait, you said you'd stay I missed that train, and now it's fading away Wait for me Wait for me If I run fast enough, will the doors still slide If I shout loud enough, would you change your mind I start again, the sunlight in my eyes But I missed that train, missed that line Maybe tomorrow, maybe someday Running in circles, leaving words unsaid Rain on the window, heart on the track Lost in the morning, never looking back Always almost, never quite on time Minute after minute, slipping between your fingers I missed that train, missed that train You said you'd wait, you said you'd stay I missed that train, and now it's fading away Wait for me Wait for me Wait for me Another sunrise, another late goodbye Just me, just you, two worlds out of line I missed that train, maybe next time
(Ooh-ooh-ooh) (Yeah-yeah) Sunrise paints the window pane Another day begins again But in my mind, I'm far away Lost in thoughts of yesterday Remember whispers in the breeze Dancing shadows 'neath the trees A fragile moment, caught in time A memory that still feels mine Like pure shores, we drifted free Lost in our own reality The waves would crash, the sun would gleam Living inside a waking dream The scent of salt still fills the air A ghost of laughter lingers there We built our castles in the sand Never thought it couldn't last, you understand? Remember whispers in the breeze Dancing shadows 'neath the trees A fragile moment, caught in time A memory that still feels mine Like pure shores, we drifted free Lost in our own reality The waves would crash, the sun would gleam Living inside a waking dream The scent of salt still fills the air A ghost of laughter lingers there We built our castles in the sand Never thought it couldn't last, you understand? Remember whispers in the breeze Dancing shadows 'neath the trees A fragile moment, caught in time A memory that still feels mine Like pure shores, we drifted free Lost in our own reality The waves would crash, the sun would gleam Living inside a waking dream A Waking Dream
Suitcase unpacked, clothes on the floor Tan lines fading, wanting more Than endless rain and traffic's drone Back to the life I've always known Flipping through pictures on my phone Of sun-drenched days, we weren't alone A stolen kiss, a whispered word Now just a memory, barely heard Holiday romance, bittersweet A summer dream, can't be beat But now it's over, back to my street Holiday romance, incomplete The cafe latte tastes so bland Compared to wine upon the sand My boring job, my daily grind He's on my mind, one of a kind Scrolling through messages we wrote A tiny boat, set afloat A promise made beneath the stars Now feels so distant, behind these bars Holiday romance, bittersweet A summer dream, can't be beat But now it's over, back to my street Holiday romance, incomplete Maybe someday, our paths will cross No longer a loss, counting the cost Of letting go, of saying goodbye To that blue sky, way up high Holiday romance, bittersweet A summer dream, can't be beat But now it's over, back to my street Holiday romance, incomplete Incomplete, oh, incomplete Just a memory, bittersweet Incomplete...
