Lyrics
In the silence of the moment
In a moment of quietness
You watch the shadows of the rain
Observing rain shadows
Slow dance across the dashboard
Dancing slowly on the car dashboard
Now nothing's the same
Everything has changed
Move around the pieces
Rearrange the pieces
Of the hand you got dealt
Of the cards life dealt you
Think you don't need it til the clock strikes twelve
Realize its importance only when time is running out
You watch her close the door
Witness her closing the door
You let her walk away
Allowing her to walk away
Drive off into the dark like there was nothing to say
Driving into the darkness as if no words were necessary
You don't stop her from going
Choosing not to prevent her departure
You don't beg her to stay
Not pleading for her to stay
That's how you lose her
This is the process of losing her
That's how you lose her
-There's gonna come a day when
A day will come when reality hits
The truth sinks in
Discovering a memory of her embracing you
You stumble on a memory of her holding you then
Stumbling upon it unexpectedly
In a sundress on a blanket
She, in a sundress, on a blanket
Soft kiss on your face
A gentle kiss on your face
Realize what's important and you know it's too late
Realizing the importance when it's too late
You watch her close the door
Observing her closing the door again
You let her walk away
Allowing her to depart once more
Drive off into the dark like there was nothing to say
Driving away without words
You don't stop her from going
Choosing not to intervene
You don't beg her to stay
Not begging for her to stay
That's how you lose her
This is the process of losing her
That's how you lose her
-Well you'll try and you try
Despite efforts, she won't return
But she won't come back again
It doesn't matter anymore
It doesn't matter now boy
It only mattered in the past
It only mattered when
