I saw you standing there, a light in the dark
A moment of hope, but we were worlds apart
Your radiant smile, lit up my cloudy nights
But it's been a while, and bad timing really bites
Your heart's not free, your love is not for me
My heart aches, for something that will never be
A shadow of dreams that won't set me free
This pain will always haunt me, that i can foresee
Why's it always the wrong time, the wrong place
I'm caught in this cycle I can't erase
Falling for you was my sweetest mistake
Now I'm haunted by the chances I didn't take
Every moment we shared, replayed in my mind
A cruel reminder of that love I can't ever find
I see you with him, and it tears me apart
A constant reminder of my fractured heart
Oh, the timing's never right
In the shadows of the night
You're always just out of sight
Chasing after you took all of my might
I'm writing these words with hope they'll reach you
But I know deep down there's nothing I can do
I'm trapped in this spiral, can't break away
Living in the memories of yesterday
I'm screaming inside, but you'll never hear
These silent cries, this hidden fear
I'm lost in the maze of my own design
Chasing a dream that's no longer mine
Why's it always the wrong time, the wrong place
I'm caught in this cycle I can't erase
Falling for you was my sweetest mistake
Now I'm haunted by the chances I didn't take
Someday I'll find a way to move on
But for now, I'm here, and you're still gone
I'll carry this pain, this heartache's song
Learning to live where we don't belong
Oh, the timing's never right
In the shadows of the night
You're always just out of sight
Chasing after you took all of my might
Why's it always the wrong time, the wrong place
I'm caught in this cycle I can't erase
Falling for you was my sweetest mistake
Now I'm haunted by the chances I didn't take
