Time is just a game I play It's written on the ocean's waves Circling beyond my brain Something I could not contain Something I could not contain [Verse 2 I know it and I cannot stray The part of me I cannot break The loss of you beyond the gray I'm sticking to the chosen ways I'm sticking to the chosen ways [Chorus I picture you inside my brain Reminding me to say my grace Reminding me to be amazed I missed you by a couple days I missed you by a couple days [Verse 3 How much of you is who I'll be? How much of us is in between? What is and what is yet to be? And can I hold the mystery? I cannot hold the mystery [Verse 4 To think that you were once like me To think that I will be like you To think that I will be consumed To know that I remain confused To always see the world in bloom [Chorus To see it like you taught me to To know that I will be amazed I missed you by a couple days I missed you by a couple days Show me how to find my place To love the world as it remains I cannot know the time it takes I missed you by a couple days I missed you by a couple days
