In The Time You've Been Gone

You left this world the morning of the 25th day of September

I can still remember when I found out

Just another evening when

I was told in the kitchen

You were dead, and I'm left thinking

How I never got to say goodbye

Distant from the live you'd been living

Made to think you were a bad memory that I would soon forget

Wallowing in my depression, self obsession

Five months swept away in a dark grey haze

Though not much for me has changed

Nothings felt since quite the same

Though not much for me has changed

No Nothings felt since quite the same

Moved on out to North Ohio

Steady job, getting married

Made it so damn unexpected

Underneath the influence

Stepping into troubled waters

Where your fate would be sealed

Never took the opportunity

Stepping in too see what's happening

A chance I'll never get to have again

Everything changes with time, that's what they all say

And damn right, I've been changing

We always had our clashes, we didn't see everything the same way

And all those other assholes, tried to make me push you away

I still can't believe it almost worked

I had to lose you to understand your worth

I wish it didn't have to end this way

And I coulda got to say

We'll hang out again one day

Yeah we'll hang out again one day

It wasn't your time

It should have been mine

It wasn't your time

No, it should have been mine

It wasn't your time

No, it should have been mine
