Time Zones Away

Time Zones Away lyrics

Verse 1

You still call me late
Like it’s normal now
I answer half-awake
Act like I’m not counting

You say you ate alone
I say yeah, me too
Same little playlist on
Different rooms

I keep your voice in loops
Like a tab I won’t close
We’re two countries apart
And you know

Pre-Chorus

You on a morning train
Me in the dark again
Same song, same file
Different hands

Tell me what this is
If it’s still a thing
Or just a habit
With your name in it

Chorus

Three time zones away, tell me what you call this
(three time zones away)
Three time zones away, are we still in it?
(are we still in it?)
You play my song, I play yours
Same hurt, different floor
Three time zones away
What are we holding for?

Verse 2

You left me on read
Then sent me a meme
I laughed too hard
For what I mean

I almost typed don’t
Then I typed okay
That’s how it goes now
Most days

Your side of the world
Still sounds like you
My side just echoes back
Through and through

And I hate how close
You still feel
When the phone goes quiet
For real

Pre-Chorus

You on a morning train
Me in the dark again
Same song, same file
Different hands

Tell me what this is
If it’s still a thing
Or just a habit
With your name in it

Chorus

Three time zones away, tell me what you call this
(three time zones away)
Three time zones away, are we still in it?
(are we still in it?)
You play my song, I play yours
Same hurt, different floor
Three time zones away
What are we holding for?

Bridge

Maybe we’re not broken
Maybe we’re just slow
Maybe that’s the problem
You still don’t know

I keep your little blue icon
Like it means more than it does
Say something real
Or don’t

Chorus

Three time zones away, tell me what you call this
(three time zones away)
Three time zones away, are we still in it?
(are we still in it?)
You play my song, I play yours
Same hurt, different floor
Three time zones away
What are we holding for?

Outro

Three time zones away
I still press play
Three time zones away
Then look away
