Time Stops When I See You

[Verse 1]
Pulled up late to the same old bar
Same old songs, same old scars
Then you laughed and the room went slow
Every clock on the wall said “go”
but they didn’t move at all
Where you been for a thousand nights
Empty chairs at a thousand lights
Every almost, every goodbye
Just a road that was winding
Back to your eyes
[Chorus]
Time stops when I see you
Second hand freezes in the blue
Every hurt that you carried here
Falls straight through
Where you been all my life, girl
How’d the world hide you from view
You’re so perfect in my arms
And I swear on my last breath
You will never be hurt again (never again)
[Verse 2]
You say love feels like a losing game
Like every win came laced with blame
Every promise was paper thin
Every “stay” turned into “when
are you gonna leave me too”
But I’m right here, boots in the dirt
Both hands up, taking your hurt
Every tear that you ever cried
Is a storm that is dying
Up against my side (yeah)
[Chorus]
Time stops when I see you
Second hand freezes in the blue
Every hurt that you carried here
Falls straight through
Where you been all my life, girl
How’d the world hide you from view
You’re so perfect in my arms
And I swear on my last breath
You will never be hurt again (never again)
[Bridge]
Look at me now
Say you believe it
You got my name
If you ever need it
Every heartbreak
Every hard night
Led you right to this front porch light (hey)
[Chorus]
Time stops when I see you
Second hand freezes in the blue
Every hurt that you carried here
Falls straight through
Where you been all my life, girl
How’d the world hide you from view
You’re so perfect in my arms
And I swear on my last breath
You will never be hurt again
You will never be hurt again (yeah)
