Hoping on Another Life
[Verse 1]
I stayed up late last night
'Cause you were on my mind
How I wish I didn’t tarnish memories
When I close my eyes
The snow just bites my cheeks
I find it hard to sleep
Knowing last time I held someone tight
Was the last time I said “good night” and meant it
[Chorus]
Can we just pretend
That you found me crying on my bed
And woke me up instead?
Can we pretend
That it didn’t end?
With me waiting for another dream
Where you find me
[Verse 2]
I stayed up late last night
'Cause you were on my mind
Every late night message from your friends
Means I can’t fall asleep again
Till daybreak
I don’t wanna stay awake
'Cause morning scares me, you’re not with me
Every time the twilight ends
[Chorus]
Can we just pretend
That you found me crying on my bed
And woke me up instead?
Can we pretend
That it didn’t end?
With me waiting for another dream
Where you find me
[Bridge]
Even when I knew the skies would change
From Golden to Gray
You tried to push me far away
But I stuck through the pain
Now you’re ahead, I’m behind
Just wasting time
'Till we meet again
Hoping on another life
[Verse 3]
I stayed up late last night
'Cause you were on my mind
Winter hurts a little worse
Knowing you’re lost to the universe
And I’m stuck in my way
Growing older every day
Wondering if it’d be an “if” or “when”
Our lives ever cross again
[Bridge]
Even when I knew the skies would change
From Golden to Gray
You tried to push me far away
But I stuck through the pain
Now you’re ahead, I’m behind
Just wasting time
'Till we meet again
Hoping on another life
[Chorus]
Can we just pretend
That you found me crying on my bed
And woke me up instead?
Can we pretend?
That it didn’t end?
With me waiting on another dream
Where you find me
