In Another Lifetime
Verse 1
You walked in like a page I’d somehow skipped,
A story I was sure I’d somehow missed.
It wasn’t loud, it wasn’t fireworks,
Just a quiet knowing that somehow hurt.
You laughed like we’d been talking for years,
Cutting through my doubts and all my fears.
Funny how the right soul can arrive…
When the timing isn’t on your side.
Pre-Chorus
So we stand between the “what ifs”
And the lives we’ve already made.
Neither one of us pretending
That the choices don’t have weight.
Chorus
Maybe in another lifetime,
Maybe on another road.
Maybe if the stars had shifted,
Maybe if we’d both been free to know.
So I’ll keep this little spark alive,
Not to hold you… not to hold me back.
Some people aren’t meant to be forgotten,
Even if they’re only passing through.
Verse 2
The miles don’t measure what I feel,
Distance doesn’t make it less real.
Some conversations stay with you,
Long after the call is through.
I don’t need forever promised.
I don’t need perfect written down.
Just the truth we couldn’t ignore
When the whole world got too loud.
Pre-Chorus
Maybe love isn’t always measured
By the life two people share.
Maybe sometimes it’s the courage
To admit that it was there.
Chorus
Maybe in another lifetime,
Maybe in another place.
Maybe we’d have met with open hands
Instead of borrowed days.
Until then I’ll keep moving forward,
Chasing everything I’m meant to find.
But somewhere in the quiet corners,
You’ll always occupy a little piece of time.
Bridge (Stripped down)
I won’t build my future on a maybe.
I won’t stop my life and wait.
But if fate has a longer story…
It already knows the way.
If not…
Thank you for reminding me
My heart could still wake up.
Sometimes that’s the greatest gift
One person leaves with another.
Final Chorus
Maybe in another lifetime…
Or maybe this was all we needed.
A reminder that hope still exists,
That connection can still surprise us.
Some people become our destination.
Some become the reason we begin.
You’ll never be my unfinished ending.
You’ll always be the chapter
That taught me to believe
There was still more of me to find.
And for that…
I’ll always smile.
