You will never know about this
it’s been long since I disappeared
those were the happiest of times
and some of my darkest, too
knowing I was in love with you
but couldn’t show, say, touch
I was caught in my own trap
a trap that broke
my body,
my mind,
my soul,
my heart
You will never know about this
and that is fine by me
I’ve learned to live off your memory
the regret is all mine,
though I wish I had another chance
to tell you of the tears that left scars
to tell you how sorry I was, I am
to finally kiss you and hide in your arms
(CHORUS)
maybe in another life
maybe in another life
maybe in another life
maybe in another life
You will never know about this
but I haven’t loved since
I’ve tried, I’ve tried
but you keep haunting my dreams
you are that ghost in my shadow
smiling as it whispers
‘I’m the best thing
next to being him,
baby, right now
there’s no other fix’
(CHORUS)
maybe in another life
maybe in another life
maybe in another life
maybe in another life…
