Wasted Time

I saw your name too late

yeah

I saw your name too late

Your name was sitting quiet under old blue light

I found it in the silence on a lonely night You reached

through the static I was hard to reach I was running from

my heart trying not to need

I hate the way the time moves when you look away I

had a chance to answer but I let it fade

Now I’m scrolling through the past like it might speak

and every little memory

still sounds like grief I don’t know where you are I don’t

know who you became I just hope life got softer when it

called your name I don’t know if you’d answer I don’t know

what I’d say but I wish I saw the message before years

got in the way You were in my request folder I was

out here getting colder missed the message not the memory

I was young and moving wrong you were gone before too long

if this ever finds you I hope you remember me

You were in my request folder I was out here getting colder

I missed the moment

not the meaning

I don’t know what road you’re on I just pray you made

it home if this ever finds you I hope you’re still breathing

I wonder if you changed names wonder if you moved wonder if

the world got heavy and you made it through

I wonder if you laugh now like you used to do or

if nobody ever learned the hidden parts of you We were both

a little different both a little bruised two shadows in the hallway

with nothing left to prove I should’ve let you closer should’ve let

you speak but I was scared of open doors and what they’d

ask of me

I don’t wanna make it tragic I don’t wanna make it pain

I just hate I missed the timing and I can’t go back

again I don’t wanna pull you backward I don’t wanna cross your

peace I just hope this song can find you if you ever

think of me You were in my request folder I was out

here getting colder missed the message not the memory

I was young and moving wrong you were gone before too long

if this ever finds you I hope you remember me

You were in my request folder I was out here getting colder

I missed the moment

not the meaning

I don’t know what road you’re on I just pray you made

it home if this ever finds you I hope you’re still breathing

If I could go back I’d pick up the line I’d say

I was sorry for wasting the time I’d ask if you’re okay

I’d ask where you’ve been I’d tell you I cared but I

held it all in And maybe that’s selfish maybe it’s late maybe

this song is all I can say But if you hear this

wherever you are I hope it feels gentle I

hope it lands soft

You were in my request folder I was out here getting colder

missed the message not the memory

I was young and moving wrong you were gone before too long

if this ever finds you I hope you remember me

You were in my request folder I was out here getting colder

I missed the moment

not the meaning

I don’t know what road you’re on I just pray you made

it home if this ever finds you I hope you’re still breathing

I saw your name too late but I still hope you’re safe

I saw your name too late but I still hope you’re safe
