Payphone maroon 5

Lyrics

[INTRO] I'm at a payphone, lights flicker, static hum All my change, all my trust, I threw it into your thumb [VERSE 1] You said we'd travel worlds on a map drawn in our palms Now the streets are empty, the city feels like a tomb I dial your number, the line is broken, no answer, no call Every coin that I spent on us feels like a fall [PRE-CHORUS] Where are the plans we made, the dreams we chased? The future we promised, now replaced by a haze I remember us, before we became strangers But the echoes of your laughter have turned to silence [CHORUS] Where have the times gone? Baby, it's all wrong We built a world for two, now it's all gone I tried to reach you through this payphone, Spent every penny, but I’m left alone [VERSE 2] You said it’s too late to mend, but is it too late to try? We burned our bridges, left them in the ash of goodbye I’ve wasted nights staring at the ceiling, the lights gone dim Now I'm paralyzed, stuck in the loop of “when” and “how” we could have been [PRE-CHORUS] I still hear that love we called it, a mirage in the sun Even the sun sets in paradise, but the dream's undone I keep the picture frame, the words that we used to say But every line is blurred, fading into gray [CHORUS] Where have the times gone? Baby, it's all wrong We built a world for two, now it's all gone I tried to reach you through this payphone, Spent every penny, but I’m left alone [BRIDGE] If happy‑ever‑afters did exist, I’d still be holding you tight All those fairy tales are full of lies, you burned them out of sight You turned your back on tomorrow, because you forgot yesterday I gave you my love to borrow, but you just let it slip away [HOOK] One more love song, I’ll be sick
