Friend From The Future

(album: LION - 2018)

Hello
Have you ever felt like you went so low
To where you're staring out a window
Waiting to be taken away?
(Okay)

In 5 years
I bet I wish I could come back here
Despite the hard time that I'm having
Maybe I could make it all happen
(Alright)

But then the clock starts ticking like it ever had stopped
The walls move in like the walls aren't blocked
All I can see in front of me
A past where I blew it and a future that I can't see
The only moment that you will experience
Gotta wonder why the present tense comes last
So I pretend that I'm my friend
From the future and I tell myself again and again and again

We're always gonna wish that (wish that)
Wish that we could come back (come back)
To right now (right now, right now)
It's where we're at already (oh yeah)
But we keep forgetting (oh yeah)
It's right now (right now, right now)

Time flies
No like little bugs with clock eyes
Make you say things like "man I'm so old"
It's not your age that's bringing you down
(Alright)

And hello
If there's no San Junipero
Well then I guess we didn't make it
But I bet we didn't miss by much
(Okay)

But then the clock starts ticking like it ever had stopped
The walls move in like the walls aren't blocked
All I can see in front of me
A past where I blew it and a future that I can't see
The only moment that you will experience
Gotta wonder why the present tense comes last
So I pretend that I'm my friend
From the future and I tell myself again and again and again

We're always gonna wish that (wish that)
Wish that we could come back (come back)
To right now (right now, right now)
It's where we're at already (oh yeah)
But we keep forgetting (oh yeah)
It's right now (right now, right now)

It's where we're at already (oh yeah)
But we keep forgetting (oh yeah)
It's right now (right now, right now)

Oh yeah
Oh yeah

I wanna be right there with you love

I wanna be right there with you love
I wanna be right there with you love
I wanna be right there with you love
All the time, all the time

I wanna be right there with you love
I wanna be right there with you love
I wanna be right there with you love
All the time, all the time
