[Verse] (Male vocals)
I saw her there
Under the willow
Her shadow danced
Soft on the stream
She didn’t speak
But her eyes whispered
A thousand miles
A thousand dreams
[Verse 2] (Female vocals)
I watched him fade
Down the old gravel
His footsteps fell
Where mine had been
The wind it carried
The scent of cedar
A touch of something that might have been
[Chorus] (Both vocals, alternating lines)
In another life
Another time
Your hand in mine
Your heart in mine
But here we are
A world apart
In another life
We’d make a start
[Verse 3] (Male vocals)
The stars don’t know
The ache of silence
The pull of tides
We’re caught between
A paper boat
Adrift and fragile
Sailing toward a fractured dream
[Verse 4] (Female vocals)
The autumn leaves
They fall like whispers
A fleeting glance
Then swept away
I gather moments
Like scattered feathers
But they won't stay
No
They won’t stay
[Chorus] (Both vocals, alternating lines)
In another life
Another time
Your hand in mine
Your heart in mine
But here we are
A world apart
In another life
We’d make a start
