Lyrics
Intro
Verse 1
Saturday spilled into Sunday again,
Caught between leaving and wanting to stay,
Your laugh still bouncing around in my head,
While I count the hours that passed after you went away.
Pre-Chorus
Should have said more when you were right here,
Should have held on before the decision was clear.
Chorus
Before it slips through my fingers like rain,
Before the door shuts and I can't open it again,
All these chances I keep letting go,
Time moves on too fast when your choices are slow.
(Slow...)
Verse 2
Tuesday morning, your coat's still hanging there,
Still reminding me of what won't return,
But I've learned that moments won't wait around,
They’ll just teach you what you were refusing to learn.
Pre-Chorus
Should have danced more in that living room,
Should have known that good things end too soon.
Chorus
Before it slips through my fingers like rain,
Before the door shuts and I can't open it again,
All these chances I keep letting go,
Time moves on too fast when your choices are slow.
Bridge
Maybe tomorrow I'll get it right,
Maybe I'll learn to hold things tight,
But tonight, I'm just watching the minutes fall,
Like voices fading down an endless hall.
Break
Final Chorus
Before it slips through my fingers like rain,
(Before it's gone, before it's gone)
Before the door shuts and I can't open it again,
(Can't open it again, can't open it again)
All these chances I keep letting go,
Time moves on too fast when your choices are slow.
Outro
(Don't let it slip...)
