Time Change

She bought a ticket for a Friday flight out of LAX
She knew the plan. She'd mapped out what would happen next
She'd land in D.C. and rent a car with miles to go
He made the move down to Charlottesville two years ago
Time change
Time change

All those hours up in the air, and behind the wheel
All that time to wonder how his hand would feel
They fell in love when he lived right across the hall
Now it took hours for her to hold his hand at all
Time change
Time change

It would be late by the time she finally reached his door
Was it too late for him to hold her like before?
She thought, Will he wait up, and I won't wonder anymore?
She thought, Will he wait up? Will he reach for me from shore to shore?
Then she found him fast asleep in the living room
That's when she asked him, This love of ours, was it always doomed
By the time change
By the time change

She bought him coffee in January, 2010
Heaven knows the world had turned a few times since then
They'd make it last when she said yes to moving west
They said, "Love will come first," but more and more she second-guessed
'Cause things change
Time change

Time change
Time change

Blame the miles? Was California just too far?
Blame the years? 'Cause who you were ain't who you are
When he woke up, he realized and wondered too
When she woke up

She bought a ticket for a Sunday flight to LAX
