In Another Life

Lyrics

Verse 1
Some hearts speak without a single word,
But silence kept us worlds apart.
I searched for answers in your eyes,
While hiding everything inside.
I waited longer than I should,
Still hoping time would change our story.

Pre-Chorus
Every time I let you fade,
Somehow you're still calling me.
I tell my heart to walk away,
But it keeps running where you used to be.

Chorus
In another life,
Maybe we wouldn't be afraid,
Maybe our worlds would find a way,
Maybe you wouldn't walk away.

Baby, I've tried a thousand times,
But my heart keeps finding you every time.
In another life,
Maybe the words we never said come true,
Maybe I wouldn't have to lose you,
Maybe we'd be everything we couldn't be...
In this life.

Verse 2
You give the world the side I wish I knew,
A smile, a laugh, a reason to stay.
But when I'm standing right in front of you,
You look like you don't know what to say.

I keep asking questions in the dark,
Wondering where we went wrong.
But even when I try to leave,
My heart keeps holding on.

Bridge
So tell me, baby, did we lose before we even had a chance?
Was it the distance between our worlds?
Was it the things we couldn't say?
Or were you just too scared to take my hand,
Every time I tried to make you stay?

Two different roads, two different skies,
Two different ways we learned to pray.
But I still found you in the quiet,
Even when I walked away.

Maybe I was holding onto a story,
That was never meant to be mine.
Maybe some hearts meet for a reason,
Even if they don't get the time.

Final Chorus
In another life...
Maybe we wouldn't have been afraid,
Maybe our worlds would find a way,
Maybe you would've stayed.

I spent so long trying to let you go,
But some feelings never leave the soul.
And even if this is where we say goodbye,
A part of me will wonder why.

In another life...
Maybe the words we never said come true,
Maybe I wouldn't have to lose you.
Maybe we'd be everything we couldn't be...
But not in this life.

Last Breath
(The instruments fade away. The piano plays one final soft note.)

Maybe...

(pause)

...in another life.
