[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...)
