Lyrics
I know it's been a couple years
I acknowledge that a significant amount of time has passed
I know you're probably wondering why now?
Recognizing that you may be curious about the timing of my actions
I'm borderline regretting how
I'm on the verge of feeling remorseful about the past
Things went on with you and
Reflecting on the events that unfolded between us
I know you've let it go
Acknowledging that you have moved on from the past
But I'm right around the corner
I am in close proximity, both physically and emotionally
From that spot I never found
Referring to a location I failed to discover earlier
Where you were waiting to be seen holding flowers
Describing a place where you were anticipating recognition, holding flowers
I think about what could've happened
Contemplating what might have transpired
If I'd just taken one more step that
Imagining the outcome if I had taken an additional step
I'd be running if I'd known you were there
Expressing a realization that I would have reacted differently if aware of your presence
Right around the corner
Reiterating my close proximity emotionally or physically
That spot I never found
Referring again to the place I failed to discover earlier
Right around the corner
Emphasizing the immediate closeness
A couple seconds out
Quantifying the short distance in terms of time
Now I've been living on the edge so
Describing a life lived on the edge of risk
I thought I would take a chance and ask you
Taking a bold step to inquire and express feelings
I'm scared to know I messed it up and
Expressing fear of having ruined the chance and the possibility of your happiness without me
That you're probably happier without me
Speculating on your potential happiness without my presence
But I'm right around the corner
Reiterating my close emotional or physical proximity
From that spot I never found
Referring again to the place I failed to discover earlier
Where you were waiting to be seen holding flowers
Describing a location where recognition was anticipated, holding flowers
I think about what could've happened
Contemplating what might have transpired
If I'd just taken one more step that
Imagining the outcome if I had taken an additional step
I'd be running if I'd known you were there
Expressing a realization that I would have reacted differently if aware of your presence
Right around the corner
Reiterating my close emotional or physical proximity
That spot I never found
Referring again to the place I failed to discover earlier
Right around the corner
Emphasizing the immediate closeness
A couple seconds out
Quantifying the short distance in terms of time
A couple seconds was all it took
Highlighting the brevity of time that led to a decision to walk away
For me to walk away
Expressing regret over the swift decision made that day
A couple seconds made up my mind
Emphasizing that a few seconds were enough to determine a course of action
How wrong was I that day
Reflecting on the incorrect judgment made on that particular day
But I'm right around the corner
Reiterating my close emotional or physical proximity
From that spot I never found
Referring again to the place I failed to discover earlier
Where you were waiting to be seen holding flowers
Describing a location where recognition was anticipated, holding flowers
I think about what could've happened
Contemplating what might have transpired
If I'd just taken one more step that
Imagining the outcome if I had taken an additional step
I'd be running if I'd known you were there
Expressing a realization that I would have reacted differently if aware of your presence
Right around the corner
Reiterating my close emotional or physical proximity
That spot I never found
Referring again to the place I failed to discover earlier
Right around the corner
Emphasizing the immediate closeness
A couple seconds out
Quantifying the short distance in terms of time
A couple seconds
Reiterating the importance of a brief moment
