The Joy Formidable - Left Too Soon Lyrics

you close your eyes, now will soon be long ago
but not before you close your eyes
will anything be lost to time

You treat it all like it won't come again
You know what it means to leave too soon
You're not the past and these streets unexplored
I get a chill I think I've met you before
You see every sunrise and sunset a message
Close my eyes I know nothing is setting
You know how it feels to leave too soon
Just hold onto me as the changes roll through

Stop when you know that it's hurting you
Stop when your hope is lost for words
Tell yourself you know they're not feeling you
Stop when you wake up lost

You treat it all like it won't come again
You know what it means to brave the cold
Oh I look across and these thoughts I've ignored
They keep us warm but don't sleep anymore
I'm learning to see it all new again
You know what it means to leave too soon
I caught myself waking up
I get a chill I think I've met you before

Stop when you know that it's hurting you
Hope when your hope is lost for words
Oh stop where it goes
grow with me across my thoughts

You see it all like it won't come again
You see it all like it doesn't end.
