Love Doesn't Wait Lyrics

Painted skies and summer sunsets

Misty eyes and words left unsaid

I didn't dare cross that one line

So instead I held our fingers intertwined

All the words I tried to say

They found the breeze and fell away

Leaving me with nothing

But a breath in the silence

Love doesn't wait

It slips right through your fingers

Falling through the cracks

'Til you're left wondering what lingers

Love doesn't wait

But I did

And now I'm afraid

That I've missed it and messed things up with you

It's been years but I still regret

Not saying something when I had a hundred chances

What if I had told you

That I loved you?

Would you have stayed? Stayed for me?

All the words I tried to say

They found the breeze and fell away

Leaving me alone and you're

Standing there beside him

Love doesn't wait

It slips right through your fingers

Falling through the cracks

'Til you're left wondering what lingers

Love doesn't wait

But I did

And now I'm afraid

That I've missed it and messed things up with you

I guess we were just soulmates

At the wrong time

Two searching people

Meant to pass each other by

We were just soulmates

At the wrong time

Maybe we were lucky enough

In another life

But who am I

To stand in the way of your happiness?

So I'll bite my tongue

And watch from the side

As you fall for him

Love doesn't wait

It slips right through your fingers

Falling through the cracks

'Til you're left wondering what lingers

Love doesn't wait

But I did

And now I'm afraid

That I've missed it and messed things up with you
