We've all got a past
And these ghosts are holding us back
I listened to your message
Over and over again
Thought about how I let you down
Thought about who I am
I felt hopeless
I got caught up in this life
I'm such a mess
I wonder how I looked through your eyes
We've all got a past
Baby, take your time
Stop and see for once in your life
The things you're missing out on
I look out on the city lights
Wonder where you are tonight?
There's so much that I wanna say
Will you ever let me?
And if I pour my heart out
Do you want the truth?
Yeah, I'd pour my heart out
I at least owe that to you
Baby, take your time
Stop and see for once in your life
The things you're missing out on
Like me, like me in the sunshine
The summer's almost over
We're running out of time
I at least owe that to you
Open up your eyes
(There's so much I have to say, will you ever let me?)
I'm right in front of you
(There's so much I have to say, will you ever let me?)
It's too cold for June
How come I only hear from you when you're liquored up?
I've heard all about the others
And this side of you that you discovered this summer
Baby, take your time
Stop and see for once in your life
The things you're missing out on
Like me, like me in the sunshine
The summer's almost over
We're running out of time
