[Verse 1] I spent my yes on borrowed rooms Left pieces where the strangers stayed Made vows beneath a passing moon Then watched the promise turn to shade [Pre-Chorus] Now you arrive with open hands And I am tied to what I gave [Chorus] I want to mold the fabric of the universe Make our paths cross before the years run out I found the one too late, too late Now I’m behind this little wall Watching the life we could have had Go by, go by, beyond my call [Verse 2] I gave my best to every door Kept every promise like a chain You’re standing where I dreamed before But I can’t ask you to wait again [Bridge] If time could loosen every thread I’d pull the whole sky into place Turn every road I took instead And meet you early, face to face [Final Chorus] I want to mold the fabric of the universe Make our paths cross before the years run out I found the one too late, too late Now I’m behind this little wall Watching the life we could have had Go by, go by, beyond my call [Outro] Too late, too late I see you pass me by
