Mid Sentence by Xavier Dunn Lyrics
[Verse 1: Xavier Dunn]
Didn't think I'd see you in this light
Didn't feel I want to need you out of sight
Doin' my best to be some kind of saint and save
You from the mess we're immersed in that you made
[Verse 2: Xavier Dunn]
Opened up my heart and home to you
Letting you see me in my most vulnerable
Fast forward a fortnight on
So far detached we've come entirely undone
These songs have all been sung
[Chorus: Xavier Dunn & Gretta Ray]
Who would've thought that those would be our final moments?
Couldn't have known we were speakin' our parting words
I was mid-sentence, all of this is cuttin' me off
All of the time well spent is distant in my mind
No longer at the forefront
Don't wanna leave it half done, rather cut and run
But we both know how this plays out
Dog-ear the page, and stow it away
[Post-Chorus: Gretta Ray]
Ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh
[Verse 3: Gretta Ray]
When your name comes up in conversation
I will smile and nod, but I'd like to keep it short
All of the time I made, all of the space I gave
Has broken me down, but I'll stand strong
I cannot cave
[Chorus: Xavier Dunn & Gretta Ray]
Who would've thought that those would be our final moments?
Couldn't have known we were speakin' our parting words
I was mid-sentence, all of this is cuttin' me off
All of the time well spent is distant in my mind
No longer at the forefront
Don't wanna leave it half done, rather cut and run
But we both know how this plays out
Dog-ear the page, and stow it away
Dog-ear the page, and stow it away
Didn't think I'd see you in this light
Didn't feel I want to need you out of sight
Doin' my best to be some kind of saint and save
You from the mess we're immersed in that you made
[Verse 2: Xavier Dunn]
Opened up my heart and home to you
Letting you see me in my most vulnerable
Fast forward a fortnight on
So far detached we've come entirely undone
These songs have all been sung
[Chorus: Xavier Dunn & Gretta Ray]
Who would've thought that those would be our final moments?
Couldn't have known we were speakin' our parting words
I was mid-sentence, all of this is cuttin' me off
All of the time well spent is distant in my mind
No longer at the forefront
Don't wanna leave it half done, rather cut and run
But we both know how this plays out
Dog-ear the page, and stow it away
[Post-Chorus: Gretta Ray]
Ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh
[Verse 3: Gretta Ray]
When your name comes up in conversation
I will smile and nod, but I'd like to keep it short
All of the time I made, all of the space I gave
Has broken me down, but I'll stand strong
I cannot cave
[Chorus: Xavier Dunn & Gretta Ray]
Who would've thought that those would be our final moments?
Couldn't have known we were speakin' our parting words
I was mid-sentence, all of this is cuttin' me off
All of the time well spent is distant in my mind
No longer at the forefront
Don't wanna leave it half done, rather cut and run
But we both know how this plays out
Dog-ear the page, and stow it away
Dog-ear the page, and stow it away
