I'm not sure and I'm not asking

But I thought I heard you say

"I just walked past him"

But why can I never do anything before you go

I don't know



And outside the streets are empty

There was no time then

And now there's

Oh why do I never get the chance to say a word

When you're on your own



If there's nothing that I want more

Why do my steps get this small

When I reach your front door

And I wait outside for you to come back out

And your light goes out



You don't know me but I'm still here

And God the last time I saw you

You were, oh, this near

And there's a thousand things I wished I'd said and done

But the moment's gone
