Losing Time (Version 2)

Verse

We said we'd leave the clock at home

Fourteen years of running on a steady pace

You took my hand across that finish line

But in the blur of crossing it, you vanished out of time

I'm still moving through the same old streets

Every step feels like I'm chasing you away

Your footsteps echoing off the pavement walls

Where did the rhythm of our days go?

Pre-Chorus

Tell me is this just a habit of mine

Or am I losing something more with every line

I know it's crazy to hold on to what we had

But without it, does any pace feel good again?

Chorus

Losing time, losing you

Same old beat but nothing stays true

Losing track of who I was before

Now every step feels like a goodbye all over again

I'm running through the hours, not reaching you

Only shadows of what we used to be

Losing time, losing you

Every mile just erases one more piece of me

Verse

You said good luck and turned around

Left me spinning with no direction found

The city lights were bright behind you

I'm still running through the same old streets today

Somehow my pace keeps getting slower every year

While your footsteps fade further from my ear

Every bell at midnight rings so loud

But in its chime, I hear a clock that's turned down low

Pre-Chorus

Tell me is this just a habit of mine

Or am I losing something more with every line

I know it's crazy to hold on to what we had

But without it, does any pace feel good again?

Chorus

Losing time, losing you

Same old beat but nothing stays true

Losing track of who I was before

Now every step feels like a goodbye all over again

I'm running through the hours, not reaching you

Only shadows of what we used to be

Losing time, losing you

Every mile just erases one more piece of me

Bridge

Maybe this is how it's meant to fade

Maybe in losing, I'll find my way

Not towards a finish line but through the dark

Where your footsteps start to feel like stars

No more chasing what we had before

I'm finding something new that I adore

Every beat may not keep me whole

But without you here, it's finally making me roll

Let go of holding onto what's gone

Find myself in running all alone

Chorus

Losing time, losing you

Same old beat but nothing stays true

Losing track of who I was before

Now every step feels like a goodbye all over again

I'm running through the hours, not reaching you

Only shadows of what we used to be

Losing time, losing you

Every mile just erases one more piece of me

Outro

Goodbye

Just me and the city lights

Fading slow

One more mile into nothing tonight
