"Past Life" lyrics

"Past Life"

Maybe somewhere down the line
I was stranded on my own
Maybe I had bad luck
Some tragedy unknown
Maybe I was a worker
With a back that's always sore
Maybe I was a mother
Who knew she needed more

In a past life
Cause this sadness that I have
Could never be mine
All this aching in my bones
Just never felt right
I've seen good light
And I've had a nice time
But maybe a past life

Maybe I was a lilac
Sprouting right at the turn of fall
Maybe I was an anthill
On a playground getting stomped
I don't know how I
Wound up all tangled up inside
But I think someone out there somewhere
Had a hand in turning the wind

In a past life
Cause this sadness that I have
Could never be mine
All this aching in my bones
Just never felt right
I've seen good light
And I've had a nice time
But maybe a past life

A hundred billion years
I'd live a hundred billion years
And I'd be right where I am
Right where I am
I'd be right where I am
A hundred billion years
I'd live a hundred billion years
Just to be right where I am
Right where I am
I'd be right where I am

In a past life
Cause this sadness that I have
Could never be mine
All this aching in my bones
Just never felt right
I've seen good light
And I've had a nice time
But maybe a past life
Maybe a past life
Maybe a past life
