The Time Effect

Saw you in the first year, but I didn't see
By the second, you meant so much to me
Every little laugh made time slow down
I just wanted one more game to keep you around

And I thought we had all the time
But the days just kept passing by

Now it's too late, I know
Senior year took you, and you're gone
And I'm still here
Wondering what I did so wrong

Every talk, every joke late at night
I'd laugh at anything just to feel right
But I let it slip, thought we'd always be
Now you're just a memory haunting me

And I thought we had all the time
But the days just kept passing by

Now it's too late, I know
Senior year took you, and you're gone
And I'm still here
Wondering what I did so wrong

Maybe if I told you, maybe if I tried
Would we still be standing side by side?
But life moves on, and people fade
Leaving behind the words we never say

Now it's too late, I know
Senior year took you, and you're gone
And I'm still here
Wondering what I did so wrong
