Lyric

When You Had Time

Ostel Dain

You called me late

Like the night had opened

A little room

Between your plans

I said I was close

Though I was nowhere near you

Already reaching

For my jacket again

I did not ask

How long I would get

I did not ask

What changed your mind

I just walked fast

Through the blue streetlight

Trying not to look

Too easy to find

I called it enough

Because it was more than nothing

Called it a sign

Because you let me in

You had an hour

You did not need

And I made it feel

Like choosing

When You Had Time

I became easy to find

You called it a free night

I called it being mine

When You Had Time

I let the whole world slide

For a borrowed little hour

At the edge of your life

You were kind

When the room was quiet

Soft with your hands

For a little while

You said my name

Like it still meant something

And I believed

The temporary sound

Your coat was on

Before the morning

Your phone lit up

Beside the door

I held my breath

Like I could keep you

If I needed

A little less than before

I called it enough

Because leaving felt worse

Smiled at the part

Where it started to hurt

You gave me a night

You were not using

And I mistook it

For being first

When You Had Time

I became easy to find

You called it a free night

I called it being mine

When You Had Time

I let the whole world slide

For a borrowed little hour

At the edge of your life

Maybe I lived

Between your plans

Maybe I learned

To need less room

Maybe your spare time

Looked like love

Because I wanted

To be wanted by you

I made a home

Out of minutes

You never meant

To keep

Then rode back alone

Through the after-midnight

With your warmth

Still leaving me

Only when you had time

I became easy to find

You called it a free night

I called it being chosen

Only when you had time

I kept stepping out of mine

For a borrowed little hour

At the edge of your life

Last train lights

On the window

My coat still warm

From your hall

I almost smiled

At the memory

Then hated how little

Could feel like all

    I Take My Name Back

    Ostel Dain

Within Your Maybe is a dry adult R&B album about a man who keeps shrinking his own needs to fit inside someone else's uncertainty.
It follows a nameless relationship where nothing is promised, yet leaving still feels impossible.
Ostel Dain sings the quiet pain of acting fine, accepting less, staying available, and realizing too late that he made himself easy to keep but hard to choose.
