Asleep
Asleep in the arms of another
Dreaming that we were still lovers

Not a single person gets to choose
What they have or what they lose
Our lives became so intertwined
Out of your control or mine

In our time we did our best
Took with the good with all the rest
It's not our job to ever know
When it's probably time to go

Asleep in the arms of another
Dreaming that were still lovers

My brain is broken I'm now convinced
I can't push these thoughts away
It's not some ordinary pain I feel
But an еxistential dread

And so now it's 3 a.m
I won't pick up up the phonе again
Feels like I wanna take a drink
But instead I stop and I think

Someone else can be magical too
Like when our love was still brand new
But then you get to know the stranger
And you find that you're in danger
Of doing it all again

Asleep in the arms of another
Dreaming that we were still lovers
