I’ve loved you from the moment that I met you.
I’ve liked you less so in the moments in between.
But we find ourselves in a very different place now.
Where we work out what staying together means.
Your words last night weigh heavy on me this morning.
They’re same the thing that kept me from any sleep.
Left unchanged they may define tomorrow.
Unless we find a way to fight what’s come between.
So do you feel the earth beneath your feet? It’s turning.
It leaves behind all those things you wouldn’t say.
In spite of everything you've said about leaving one more time.
It was only time that got away.
From the beginning, we were happy to find a lover.
Even more so to also find a friend.
Yeah but how do tell those kids about another?
Or despite how they feel, this is how the story ends?
Because they don’t know how to hold their cards any closer.
Or silently watch as their best friend slips away.
They’d fight for anything that's worth holding onto.
And curse the sun for taking another day.
So do you feel the earth beneath your feet? It’s turning.
It leaves behind all those things you wouldn’t say.
In spite of everything you've said about leaving one more time.
It was only time that got away.
Do we pick up the pieces to see just what is left here?
And find out if all the damage can be erased?
No matter how much we’re gonna love each other tonight.
We can’t live alone together another day.
So do you feel the earth beneath your feet? It’s turning.
It leaves behind all those things you wouldn’t say.
In spite of everything you've said about leaving one more time.
It was only time.
It was only time.
It was only time that got away.
