I Thought There Was Time

*I Thought There Was Time* is a heartfelt cinematic pop ballad about a friendship that quietly slipped away. Sometimes the people who mean the most are only minutes away, and we convince ourselves there will always be another chance to visit, another conversation, another ordinary day together. But life moves on, opportunities fade, and before we realize it, they're gone—starting a new chapter somewhere far away. This song explores the quiet regret of taking time for granted, the loneliness left behind, and the realization that missing a friend can feel a lot like grief. It's a reminder to cherish the people who are close to us while we still have the chance.

I Thought There Was Time *Verse 1* You were only down the road, Close enough to never worry. I kept saying, "Maybe next week," Always living in a hurry. Then one day you said you're leaving, Chasing dreams beyond this town. I smiled while hiding all the pieces Breaking quietly inside. *Pre-Chorus* I thought we'd always have tomorrow... I never saw goodbye. *Chorus* You were only minutes away, But I kept saving you for another day. I thought tomorrow would always wait Until you packed your dreams away. Now this city doesn't feel like home, Every crowded street feels so alone. I didn't lose you to the end... I lost the friend I should've seen. *Verse 2* Now your street feels unfamiliar, Even though it's still the same. Every place reminds me softly How much I took for granted. Funny how an empty distance Can echo louder every day. Some hearts don't break from losing someone... They break from waiting too long. *Pre-Chorus* If I had known forever Could fit inside one goodbye... *Chorus* You were only minutes away, But I kept saving you for another day. I thought tomorrow would always wait Until you packed your dreams away. Now this city doesn't feel like home, Every crowded street feels so alone. I didn't lose you to the end... I lost the friend I should've seen. *Bridge* If I could turn these roads around, I'd knock on your old front door. Just one ordinary evening... Like the hundred I ignored. Funny how the smallest distance Can become the hardest goodbye. *Final Chorus* You were only minutes away, But I kept saving you for another day. I thought tomorrow would always wait Until you packed your dreams away. Now this city doesn't feel like home, Every crowded street feels so alone. I didn't lose you to the end... I lost the friend I should've seen. *Outro* You're chasing skies you've never known, And I hope they give you everything. Here, where your footsteps used to echo... Missing a friend Sounds just like grief.
