Sundial on my wrist

Verse

Your scarf on the floor where you stepped out

Coffee rings on the windowsill we built this life with

Your old watch still ticking on your bedside table

Every single thing that was ours before we left for the light

I'm keeping every piece of it like it's a coin I found in the street

Pre-Chorus

Tell me is this the way that you feel too?

Can we hold onto something real here with you?

Chorus

This sundial on my wrist is moving slow today

Every second counted since you walked away

I'm keeping every piece of it, I won't let it fade

Even though our time is up and the sun moved to a new shade

This sundial on my wrist still remembers where we used to be

Verse

Your old phone's charging in the socket where your charger used to live

There's a hole in the wall where you hung that one favorite guitar riff

Pre-Chorus

Tell me is this the way that you feel too?

Can we hold onto something real here with you?

Chorus

This sundial on my wrist is moving slow today

Every second counted since you walked away

I'm keeping every piece of it, I won't let it fade

Even though our time is up and the sun moved to a new shade

This sundial on my wrist still remembers where we used to be

Bridge

Maybe I should just break it in two

Let the pieces fall like autumn leaves for you

But something's holding me here, something I won't let go of yet

So I'll keep watching every minute creep

And maybe someday these hands will stop ticking on my wrist again when we're not apart

Chorus

This sundial on my wrist is moving slow today

Every second counted since you walked away

I'm keeping every piece of it, I won't let it fade

Even though our time is up and the sun moved to a new shade

This sundial on my wrist still remembers where we used to be
