Nina Gordon - Too Slow to Ride Lyrics

From the moment I arrived
Until the day that I died
I was selfish and slow
Too slow to ride by your side
But I was so afraid
That I began to fade

[Chorus:]
Now another bright has turned to gray
And someone else's light will take my place
And though I'm getting used to the aftertaste
You know I miss your eyes
I miss your face

And when the sun went dead
And the moon was up ahead
I finally figured out what
I should have said to you then
And no one is to blame
But we'll never be the same

[Chorus]
Now another bright has turned to gray
And someone else's light will take my place
And though I'm getting used to the aftertaste
You know I miss your eyes
I miss your face

There's no use in trying
I can't be what I was [Repeat: x1]

[Chorus]
Now another bright has turned to gray
And someone else's light will take my place
And though I'm getting used to the aftertaste [Repeat: x2]
You know I miss your eyes
I miss your face
