Hoping On Another Life

(album: It Started With Hey - 2021)

I stayed up late last night
Cause you were on my mind
How I wish I didn't tarnish memories when I close my eyes
The snow just bites my cheeks
Find it hard to sleep
Knowing last time I held someone tight was the last time I said "good night" and meant it

Can we just pretend
That you found me crying on my bed and woke me up instead
Can we pretend
That it didn't end?
With me waiting for another dream where you find me

I stayed up late last night
Cause you were on my mind
Every late night message from your friends means I can't fall asleep again till daybreak
I don't wanna stay awake
Cause morning scares me, you're not with me, every time the twilight ends

Can we just pretend
That you found me crying on my bed and woke me up instead
Can we pretend
That it didn't end?
With me waiting for another dream where you find me

Even when I knew the skies would change from Golden to Gray
You tried to push me far away, but I stuck through the pain
Now you're ahead, I'm behind, just wasting time
Till we meet again, hoping on another life

I stayed up late last night
Cause you were on my mind
Winter hurts a little worse knowing you're lost to the universe
And I'm stuck in my way
Growing older every day
Wondering if it'd be an "if" or "when", our lives ever cross again

Even when I knew the skies would change from Golden to Gray
You tried to push me far away, but I stuck through the pain
Now you're ahead, I'm behind, just biding time
Till we meet again, hoping on another life

Can we just pretend
That you found me crying on my bed and woke me up instead
Can we pretend?
That it didn't end with me waiting on another dream where you find me
