[Verse 1]
I think I’ve been to this headspace
The feeling of writing on the last page
When everything’s changing at the same time
With echoes of the things that I’m leaving behind
The clock’s still ticking at these moments
Gotta daily tell my friends that I love them
I know this time it’s gonna change things
There’s not much time left to make peace
[Chorus]
But when it comes to a fresh start
I guess it’s better late than never
And with all these matters of the heart
I know I’ll never forget him
You know I always wanted a fresh start
I guess now is the time to tell her
When it comes to matters of the heart
It’s better late than never
It’s better late than never
[Verse 2]
I know I’ve been to this headspace
Years ago I wanted just to leave this place
But then things changed and I found myself
In all of the people that I’m going without
I once thought I’d never leave this town
Got comfortable and started to settle down
But things shook up, now I’m changing
And now I’m trying just to make peace
[Pre-Chorus]
There’s not too much left unfinished
But I’m still hesitant about this
I made up my mind and I’m leaving
But it’s not entirely freeing
I know I’ll learn things about myself
Grow from the time in a new town
But I’m still crying when I wake up
From dreams about all of the doors that are shut
[Chorus]
But when it comes to a fresh start
I guess it’s better late than never
And with all these matters of the heart
I know I’ll never forget him
You know I always wanted a fresh start
I guess now is the time to tell her
When it comes to matters of the heart
It’s better late than never
It’s better late than never
[Bridge]
The time is coming soon
Winter’s around the corner
All the memories of you
Are soon to be upon me
The way the wind ruffled your hair
The way you closed your eyes
The peace I felt in winter air
All our stupid fights
Things have changed
Sometimes they have to
I have to face it
I’m leaving without you
I don’t know if I’ll be back someday
But this time it’s me who’s walking away
I once thought I’d never leave this town
Got comfortable and started to settle down
Now I’m taping up boxes and thinking of
All the people I’ve loved
[Alt. Chorus]
But when it comes to a fresh start
I guess it’s better there than nowhere
And with all the love in my heart
I know I’ll never forget him
You know I always wanted a fresh start
At least that’s what I tried to tell her
When it comes to matters of the heart
When it comes to matters of the
[Chorus]
But when it comes to a fresh start
I guess it’s better late than never
And with all these matters of the heart
I know I’ll never forget him
You know I always wanted a fresh start
I guess now is the time to tell her
When it comes to matters of the heart
It’s better late than never
It’s better late than never
