(Verse 1)
I saw forever in your smile,
Felt the fire for a little while,
We had the spark, we had the flame,
But baby, love ain't just a name.
You held me close but talked too loud,
Whispers flying through the crowd,
Truth got lost in shades of doubt,
That’s not what love is all about.
(Chorus)
I could've loved you, I really could've tried,
But I don't play in circles full of talk and lies.
Your heart was warm, but the world around you cold,
And I need peace more than someone to hold.
We were a good thing in a bad rhyme—
Right place, wrong time.
(Verse 2)
I ain’t the kind to keep up the game,
I don’t need rumors tied to my name.
Every "hello" came with a cost,
Every sweet word got double-crossed.
You said you’re different, but I can’t ignore
What I keep hearing behind closed doors.
It’s not your love I’m walkin’ from—
It’s the noise that you keep runnin’ from.
(Chorus)
I could've loved you, I really could've tried,
But I don't play in circles full of talk and lies.
Your heart was warm, but the world around you cold,
And I need peace more than someone to hold.
We were a good thing in a bad rhyme—
Right place, wrong time.
(Bridge)
Some loves are meant to stay, some just to teach,
Yours showed me what I don’t want to reach.
No hard feelings, just lessons learned—
Some bridges don’t need to be burned.
(Final Chorus)
I could’ve loved you, in another life,
But I won’t chase dreams wrapped up in strife.
You were a moment I had to leave behind—
Right place… wrong time.
(Outro)
Yeah, we were almost perfect…
But love don’t live in the land of lies.
Right place… wrong time.
