[Verse 1] We painted castles in the air With brushes made of trust and care Dreams so bright,we left them there I held your hand,but not too tight Thought we’d have another night Another dawn,another light [Pre-Chorus 1] The words unsaid,they haunt me still A quiet ache,a hollow thrill A future waiting on a hill That we never got to climb [Chorus] And Time ran out,the stars stood still All the plans we made,they never will A world of chances,none came true Time ran out,and so did you [Verse 2] We spoke of roads we’d never take A thousand sunsets on some lake Laughed about the risks we'd never make Like flying close—too close—to the sun A game we thought was just for fun Before our story was undone [Pre-Chorus 2] The days we saved,they slipped away Like whispers lost to yesterday I saved a seat for you today Then remembered we were through [Chorus] And Time ran out,the stars stood still All the plans we made,they never will A world of chances,none came true Time ran out,and so did you [Bridge] Was it foolish,or was it fate? To leave our love to chance and wait For a"someday" that would come too late? Now I trace the ghost of your name on the glass Watching the seasons and the memories pass A beautiful dream that was never built to last [Guitar Solo] (A melancholic, echoing guitar solo carries the melody of the chorus, expressing the pain words can't capture) [Final Chorus] Time ran out,the stars stand still Every promise,they never will A universe of chances,and none came true Time ran out... Yes,Time ran out... And so did you. [Outro] Painted castles...fading now... Just a whisper... A final vow... Time ran out.
