[Verse 1] We met in high school through a sister’s door You thought I was worth fighting for I was just a dumb kid, drifting through the haze Not knowing what wanting meant in those days Let alone what I wanted [Chorus] And time keeps on slipping away I didn't know where I was meant to stay Now the page has turned, the shadows fall And I'm missing the best thing of all [Verse 2] Then I graduated, packed up and ran Left it behind, had no master plan Couldn't maintain a love I couldn't see Blind to the treasure right in front of me [Chorus] And time keeps on slipping away I didn't know where I was meant to stay Now the page has turned, the shadows fall And I'm missing the best thing of all [Bridge] Years passed you by, you finally moved on Found someone new, and the illusion was gone Only in the quiet, only when it's too late Did I wake up and see my own mistake [Guitar Solo - Emotional, building in intensity] [Verse 3] Now I just sit watching from the quiet place As someone else steps in to fill the space The life that could have been, the life I could have lived If I only knew... what I had to give [Outro] If I knew where I was meant to be... ...Yeah, where I was meant to be [Spoken] But that is for another life.
