Chadwick Station - Before Time Slipped Away lyrics

Verse 1 If I sat alone and conjured thoughts of you Would that provide a pa**age through The portal of what used to be When all we knew was you and me And how our love would never die? Why'd we say goodbye? Chorus Am I wrong to wonder for so long? To dwell upon the ifs and buts That k** me like a thousand cuts. Now I love her and you love him But we were us before we were them. What we had will have to stay Locked inside our yesterday 'Cause that was before time slipped away. Verse 2 If I had to choose between the life I've seen Or one that simply could've been Could I just throw it all away In hopes that you would always stay with me And give us one more try? Why'd we say goodbye? Chorus And how long will I wonder what went wrong? To question all the steps I made. To second-guess the hand I played. Now you love him and I love her. We can't go back to what we were. What we had we can't replay 'Cause it belongs to yesterday And that was before time slipped away. Instrumental Bridge Chorus What we had will have to stay Locked inside our yesterday 'Cause that was before time slipped away. Oh, that was before time slipped away.
