"Lost In Time" lyrics - RYAN ADAMS

It's not the fall from grace that breaks you down
It's someone's face you miss so much
You hit the ground, you hit the brakes
And you crash in the same place
Till the impact tears apart the parts of her you loved
And you cannot replace

[Pre-Chorus:]
Why did you want to throw it all away?
Why did you let it go?
To throw it all away
You watch in disbelief
As she lets go
She lets go

[Chorus:]
Hands separate
Lost in time

If I am doomed just to repeat the past
Let it be some day where all the moments passed
Like raindrops on her glass
No one is the winner, no one comes in last
Or comes close to even mattering
We lose the love and we lose the past

[Pre-Chorus:]
Why did you want to throw it all away?
Why did you let it go?
To throw it all away
You watch in disbelief
As she lets go
She lets go
She lets go

[Chorus:]
Hands separate
Lost in time

In the corner I'm the clown
Sits and drinks the coffee down
Newspaper open as he smokes
Till his teeth fall out
Our love's a monster as it crawls
When the engine starts to stall
Abandoning the car
Put it in neutral and run off

Nothing in this place makes sense
Words, no evidence a history of plain
For me to feel your shame
But you did everything I did
Destroying all the evidence
So you could paint your face on mine
To believe your own lies

[Pre-Chorus:]
Why did you want to throw it all away?
Why did you let it go?
To throw it all away
You watch in disbelief
As she lets go
She lets go
She lets go

[Chorus:]
Hands separate
Lost in time
Hands separate
Lost in time
