"Life After" lyrics
(from "Sam & Kate" soundtrack)
Don't fall asleep
Is what I think when I close my eyes
I don't want to see
The life that could have been
But either way it hurts
It's hard to find the words
I should be packing up a lunchbox
In a rush to meet the school bus
And tell him it's okay
God, I miss that perfect face
You changed my course
Turned on lights in rooms that I had always kept dark
And rearranged my heart
So I can breathe again
I can't believe it happened
This wasn't how I planned it
The cards that I was handed
You take the weight and share it
You take my heart and carry it
You make the hard things better
You gave me life after
I'm not expecting easy
But I see you and you see me
You make my heart beat faster
You gave me life after
We could make a fresh start
Send our old lives post cards
Draw me in your story board
Is what I think when I close my eyes
I don't want to see
The life that could have been
But either way it hurts
It's hard to find the words
I should be packing up a lunchbox
In a rush to meet the school bus
And tell him it's okay
God, I miss that perfect face
You changed my course
Turned on lights in rooms that I had always kept dark
And rearranged my heart
So I can breathe again
I can't believe it happened
This wasn't how I planned it
The cards that I was handed
You take the weight and share it
You take my heart and carry it
You make the hard things better
You gave me life after
I'm not expecting easy
But I see you and you see me
You make my heart beat faster
You gave me life after
We could make a fresh start
Send our old lives post cards
Draw me in your story board
