Mine in Another Life

We were midnight on a Monday,

Wrong time, right soul.

You were calling to confess things

No friend should ever know.

In the quiet, you were danger,

But you felt like something true—

And I swore I wouldn’t love you,

But I slipped, fell into you.

You said “I feel it too”,

But you kept one hand on home…

I learned how to want you softly,

’Cause I knew I couldn’t hold you close.

But I was almost yours, baby—

In the shadows, in the secret, in the way you said my name.

Yeah, we crossed that line too many times

To just pretend it’s all the same.

You went back to your forever—

And I’m not mad you chose your life…

But damn, I miss your lies -

Cuz I know you still taste me in your mind

Don’t you pretend you’re clean now—

I’m still dripping in your dreams.

Every time you kiss her neck

You taste the ghost of where we’ve been.

You try to wash me off you,

But I stain like something true…

You can lie about your choices—

But your body never lies to you.

You whispered “In another life…”

And I almost let myself believe.

And I’m haunted by the version

Where you never had to leave.

I was almost yours, baby—

In the shadows, in the secret, in the way you said my name.

Yeah, we crossed that line too many times

To just pretend it’s all the same.

You went back to your forever—

And I’m not mad you chose your life…

But damn, I miss our laughter

(And the way you brought me peace at night)

I don’t blame you for choosing comfort—

But don’t pretend you didn’t fall.

’Cause every time you said it’s over,

You’d come crawling when she’d call.

And I’d open like a weakness

You swore you’d never let exist…

Now you’re gone back to your life,

But my body still remembers every kiss.

I was almost yours, baby—

In the shadows, in the secret, in the way you said my name.

Yeah, we crossed that line too many times

To just pretend it’s all the same.

You went back to your forever—

And I’m not mad you chose your life…

But damn, I miss you baby

(And the way your body gets me right)
