New Song | If We Met Sooner (A Little Late)

I see the way you look at her, the way she holds your hand You talk about your future plans, the life that you both planned And I am just a passenger, a shadow in the queue A little late to catch the train that leads me home to you We share the same dark humor, we read the same old books We finish each other's sentences, and exchange those heavy looks It feels like a familiarity from another time and space But I’m standing on the sidelines, locked in second place If we met sooner, if the clock had turned back right Before you found your forever, before she held your night I wouldn't have to hide the way your name tastes on my tongue We’d be the perfect story, but we started it undone Oh, if we met sooner, I’d be the one You tell me that you’re happy, and I pray to God it’s true But sometimes when the room goes quiet, I think you feel it too A cosmic kind of cruelty, a beautiful mistake To find the piece that fits you right, when it's too late to take I’ll never ask you to choose, I’ll never make a scene I love you far too much to stand between your golden dream So I will be your confidant, the keeper of your mind And leave the prettiest version of us forever left behind [Chorus] If we met sooner, if the clock had turned back right Before you found your forever, before she held your night I wouldn't have to hide the way your name tastes on my tongue We’d be the perfect story, but we started it undone Oh, if we met sooner, I’d be the one In another lifetime, we are driving down the coast In another universe, I am the one you love the most No rings upon your finger, no promises to break Just years and years of mornings that were ours alone to make [Sudden stop, single resonant low piano note] But the calendar is ruthless, and the stars are out of line You are the right person... just at the wrong time [Chorus] If we met sooner, if the clock had turned back right Before you found your forever, before she held your night I wouldn't have to hide the way your name tastes on my tongue We’d be the perfect story, but we started it undone Oh, if we met sooner... I'll smile at your wedding I'll wish you both the best And bury this rewrite deep inside my chest Goodbye to the timeline that we never got to start My favorite "almost" The keeper of my heart Music available on Spotify Artist - Jack Romeo: https://open.spotify.com/artist/0yGx7...
