Took Me Too Long

[Verse 1]
I left you on read
Then sat with my pride
My phone on the table
Your name in my mind
Days turned to hours
Then into the week
I knew I should answer
But I couldn't speak

[Pre-Chorus]
Now I'm here with the truth
In the palm of my hand
I was lost in my head
Didn't mean to let go

[Chorus]
Sorry for taking so long to reply
Sorry for taking so long to reply
You were right there
I was out of my mind
Sorry for taking so long to reply
(sorry, sorry)
Sorry for taking so long to reply

[Verse 2]
I saw your last message
Like a light in the dark
My thumb kept hovering
My heart in a knot
No grand excuse
Just me being scared
I know that silence
Wasn't fair

[Pre-Chorus]
Now I'm here with the truth
In the palm of my hand
I was lost in my head
Didn't mean to let go

[Chorus]
Sorry for taking so long to reply
Sorry for taking so long to reply
You were right there
I was out of my mind
Sorry for taking so long to reply
(sorry, sorry)
Sorry for taking so long to reply

[Bridge]
If you let me back in
I'll do better this time
Less holding my breath
More saying what's mine
I don't want a shield
I don't want a lie
I just want your name
Back on my line

[Final Chorus]
Sorry for taking so long to reply
Sorry for taking so long to reply
You were right there
I was out of my mind
Sorry for taking so long to reply
(take my call)
Sorry for taking so long to reply
