[Intro] [Instrumental] [Instrumental] [Verse 1] I remember Sunday mornings, The sunlight on the floor, Your old chair beside the window, And your footsteps by the door. You'd ask me where I was going, I'd say, “I'll be home tonight,” Never knowing those little moments Were the treasures of my life. [Pre-Chorus] The years were always waiting, Or so I used to think, Tomorrow seemed forever, And yesterday was yesterday. [Chorus] I thought we had more time, More mornings, more goodbyes, More stories at the table, More laughter in our lives. I thought there'd be another day, Another chance to say, All the words I kept for later— But later slipped away. [Instrumental Interlude] [Instrumental] [Instrumental] [Verse 2] I remember how you worried When I stayed out too late, How you'd leave the porch light burning, Though I'd tell you not to wait. I remember little arguments I thought would never end, Funny how the things we once complained about Are the things we miss again. [Pre-Chorus] The calendar kept turning, The seasons came and went, I was busy chasing tomorrow, While yesterday was spent. [Chorus] **I thought we had more time,** More mornings, more goodbyes, More coffee at the kitchen table, More ordinary nights. I thought there'd be another day, Another chance to say, “How much you meant to me,” Before the years took you away. [Bridge] If I could have one evening, Just one hour, nothing more, I'd sit beside you quietly Like I had done before. I wouldn't talk about tomorrow, I wouldn't watch the clock, I'd simply say, “I'm grateful,” And hold your hand a little longer. [Instrumental Break] [Instrumental Interlude] [Instrumental] [Instrumental] [Final Chorus] I thought we had more time, But time was never mine. It gave me all those precious days Then carried them away. And now I understand at last What I couldn't see back then— The days I thought were ordinary Were the best days of my life. [Outro] So if someone says, “Tomorrow,” I'll remember what I know: Some moments ask for nothing But for us to let them grow. I thought we had more time... I wish I'd known... We always think we do. We always think we do.
