Morgan Wallen - Been By Now (Lyrics) [4K]

A breakup song about timing rather than blame: two people who stayed in the will-they-won't-they stage so long that the answer arrived on its own. The whole thing turns on the title's play on words — the idea that if it were ever going to happen, it already would have. Wallen wrote it with his regular circle of collaborators including Charlie Handsome, John Byron, Blake Pendergrass, Rocky Block and Taylor Phillips, with longtime producer Joey Moi at the desk, and released it July 24, 2026 as the lead single ahead of his fifth studio album. ▶ Best viewed in 4K — tap the gear icon and select 2160p. ▶ Every version of this song: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLB8hdxNo190o This is a fan-made lyric video with original visuals. #MorganWallen #BeenByNow #Lyrics #CountryMusic #LyricVideo #NewCountry #Billboard LYRICS: No need to act surprised, I've seen it in your eyes I feel it when we lie here worlds apart It's easier to stay, it's easier to say That there's gon' come a day it won't be this hard Nah, we don't even fight like we used to We don't even care enough to cry no more It's been a hundred nights since I knew you How long we gonna keep looking at that door If it was meant to be we'd have been by now We wouldn't have to keep tryna work things out Yeah baby we're a breeze when the lights go down It wouldn't be so hard when we ain't in the dark If we were in the stars, they'd have lined right up Yeah maybe from the start we been trying too much I know you wanna think that it's what we found But if it was meant to be we'd have been by now, been by now If I could go and find the moment or the night My heart went cold as ice, I'd light the match Don't wanna draw the line, don't wanna say goodbye But we're just wastin' time, girl, that we don't have If it was meant to be we'd have been by now We wouldn't have to keep tryna work things out Yeah baby we're a breeze when the lights go down It wouldn't be so hard when we ain't in the dark If we were in the stars, they'd have lined right up Yeah maybe from the start we been trying too much I know you wanna think that it's what we found But if it was meant to be we'd have been by now, been by now Nah, we don't even fight like we used to We don't even care enough to cry no more It's been a hundred nights since I knew you And I can't spend another looking at that door If it was meant to be we'd have been by now We wouldn't have to keep tryna work things out Yeah baby we're a breeze when the lights go down It wouldn't be so hard when we ain't in the dark If we were in the stars, they'd have lined right up Yeah maybe from the start we been trying too much I know you wanna think that it's what we found But if it was meant to be we'd have been by now, been by now Been by now All music rights belong to the original rights holders.
