out of time

Kitchen light flickers

Unwashed dishes wait

Clock frozen on the wall

It's getting late

Words between us overgrown

In what we once tended

Silence has its own sound

When something's ended

Borrowed hours, no one's claim

Between your truth and mine

Calendar pages turn

As we run out of time

We run out of time

We used to talk till dawn

Maps spread across your floor

Now we can't find five minutes

To say what matters anymore

I watch the moon's phases

You count miles away

Different orbits now

Nothing left to say

Borrowed hours, no one's claim

Between your truth and mine

Calendar pages turn

As we run out of time

We run out of time

Not who I was when we met

Not the dream I tried to hold

We've grown in different directions

Some together, mostly alone

I won't tear out any pages

Even as I let you go

I'll wash these dishes someday

Reset the stopped clock

Pack away those maps

We once traced through talk

Years from now we might meet

As strangers who once knew

Everything about who we were

Before we flew

Borrowed hours, no one's claim

Between your truth and mine

Calendar pages turn

We've run out of time

We've run out of time

And that's alright

That's alright
