[Title: 15 Years You'll Lose]
(Intro)
(Soft piano or acoustic guitar. Melancholy.)
Irish twins... but not the same birth.
November... December...
Felt like fate.
(Verse 1)
It felt like fate was putting us on the same earth
A "soul tie connection" to show me what it's worth.
I could feel the history, I could feel it in the air
Mothers wanting to feel... it was a heavy cross to bear.
I know you felt the tug, I know it felt so real
(Ramping up) But a feeling can't fix what you're trying to conceal.
(Chorus)
Maybe in another lifetime, baby,
'Cause I'm soaring to the sky.
You're still smoking all your dreams,
While I'm just passing by.
You've got a programmed mindset, I've got a path to choose,
This ain't our love story, it's the 15 years you'll lose.
(Verse 2)
What ate your dreams? Did they get in the way?
Did you smoke 'em all? Did they just fade to gray?
My childhood dreams got trampled, but I got back on my feet
You're still pounding the bag, stuck on the same street.
It started out at 20, now it's 15 years of you
And you're not ready to change, so what am I supposed to do?
'Cause I got the brains, and I'm reaching for the Light
While you're still just getting used to living in the night.
(Chorus)
Maybe in another lifetime, baby,
'Cause I'm soaring to the sky.
You're still smoking all your dreams,
While I'm just passing by.
You've got a programmed mindset, I've got a path to choose,
This ain't our love story, it's the 15 years you'll lose.
(Bridge)
And I can't... 'cause I know we won't work.
I know you felt the pull, I know you felt the tug...
But that good-time feeling,
That "real union" healing...
It feels good, oh so good...
But it's not the love I'm waiting for.
It's not my holy union.
I'm aiming higher.
(Chorus - Climax / Big)
Maybe in another lifetime, baby!
'Cause I'm SOARING to the sky!
You're still smoking all your dreams,
And I gotta fly!
You've got a programmed mindset, I've got a path to choose,
This ain't our love story, it's the 15 years you'll lose!
(Oh, the years you'll lose...)
(Outro)
(Music fades, piano takes over)
This ain't our love story...
Maybe in another life...
I gotta fly.
I'm soaring.
Aiming for the sky...
(Music out)
