[Verse 1] You stood alone where the shadows met the light, Eyes on the floor while the room came alive. The smoke curled slow as the bassline grew, A thousand moving bodies, but I only noticed you. Every flash of white cut a hole through the dark, Every kick drum landed like a beat on my heart. I told myself I'd cross the room eventually, But the night kept stealing every chance from me. [Build] One more song. One more chance. That's what I said. That's what I said. [Drop] TOO LATE TOO LATE I SHOULD HAVE SAID SOMETHING TOO LATE [Verse 2] Outside at three in the cold city haze, We were orbiting circles in a momentary phase. Streetlights painted silver on the rain-soaked ground, Your laugh cut through all the noise around. You looked up once and our eyes aligned, Half a second stretched and distorted time. I took one step as the crowd moved through, And the night closed in before I got to you. [Build] Wrong place. Right feeling. Wrong timing. Right meaning. [Drop] WRONG TIMING RIGHT PERSON WRONG TIMING RIGHT PERSON [Verse 3] Now every station and every train, Every unfamiliar face brings it back again. A glimpse through glass, a silhouette, A feeling that survived what the mind forgets. Maybe it was nothing. Maybe that's true. But some empty spaces keep the shape of you. Like a song unfinished or a fading sign, Still taking up space somewhere in my mind. [Breakdown] We spend our lives chasing certainty, Names, promises, destinations. But sometimes a memory survives Without any of those things. Sometimes a stranger becomes a story. [Final Build] Not because they stayed. Not because they loved you. Not because they changed your life. But because they almost did. [Final Drop] I SHOULD HAVE SAID SOMETHING I SHOULD HAVE SAID SOMETHING TOO LATE TOO LATE WRONG TIMING RIGHT PERSON WRONG TIMING RIGHT PERSON [Outro] Somewhere tonight, Under another set of lights, You're living a life I'll never know. And somehow, That's the part I can't let go.
