When I Was

Does this song in your playlist Make you think of me sometimes? Do the chords still play the echoes Of the love we left behind? Do you feel just as lonely? Lying in your bed at night? Tracing shapes into the ceiling Wishing time could make things right? Every time I hear your name It tears me up a little more Should have held you when I could Now you're walking through his door Just one more time just one last chance To hold you close to feel your hands But you're moving on yeah it's too late I hope he knows what's at stake I hope he brings you flowers at your work I hope he understands your quiet words I hope he calls you up just to say "Let's run away" I hope he makes you smile like I never could that way I hope he sees the way you dance when no one's there I hope he listens when you whisper your worst fears I hope he holds you when the world just feels too cold I hope he loves you right more than I ever showed I should've stayed when you needed time Should have been the one to dry your eyes I was lost inside my pride Now you're building a life with him Does he know your favorite song? Does he hum the notes when you're alone? Does he trace his fingers down your spine The way I used to when you were mine? Every night I sit and wonder If you ever feel the same But it's not my place not anymore Still I pray he keeps you safe Just one more time just one last dance To say the words I never had the chance But you're moving on yeah it's too late I hope he never makes you wait I hope he brings you flowers at your work I hope he understands your quiet words I hope he calls you up just to say "Let's run away" I hope he makes you smile like I never could that way I hope he knows the way your coffee tastes just right I hope he holds your hand when you can't sleep at night I hope he whispers love when you don't feel enough I hope he treats you right the way I should have loved If only I could turn back time I wouldn't waste a single night I'd be the man you always dreamed Instead of just a memory But now he's there standing by your side And all I do is hope inside That he sees you the way I did That he never lets love slip I hope he makes you laugh when days feel long I hope he holds you close when things go wrong I hope he sees the light inside your soul I hope he loves you right like I should have known I hope he never lets you cry alone I hope he never leaves you feeling cold I hope he kisses you with all his heart I hope he never lets you fall apart
