I wish I could've met you in a year or two
Oh, maybe then you could've seen what I saw
On the day we met, you were still trying to forget someone you used to know
And there just wasn't enough time between her goodbye and my goodbye
Boy, we tried for a while, but I could always see
I played second fiddle to love's old memory
Because at the mention of her name, I could still see the flame burning soft and low
And there just wasn't enough time between her goodbye and my goodbye
Oh, time is the healer of all wounds
Especially those who break it can
Lord, it looks like I just came along too soon
Cause she still takes up too much of your mind
If our paths had only crossed on a later day
I know we could've made it, baby
We almost made it anyway
But you weren't completely free
Cause someone else's memory just wouldn't let you go
And there just wasn't enough time between her goodbye and my goodbye
In between her goodbye and my goodbye
In between her goodbye and my goodbye
In between her goodbye and my goodbye
In between her goodbye and my goodbye
In between her goodbye and my goodbye
All we needed was a little more time
All we needed that time to fill your feelings, make your mind
In between her goodbye and my goodbye
In between her goodbye and my goodbye
