lyrics

It’s something like the faded years
That you thought would never have an end

And it’s something like the stretch of days
Between now and the last lost thoughts from a friend

And it’s something like the hours of promise
That seemed to empty out so fast

If I catch them in a jar,
Could I even recall
Through clouded glass?
That it’s something like that.

Sometimes I think to myself:
In another world this song doesn’t exist
In another world this song doesn’t exist

And it’s something like staring at beauty
Too afraid to close your eyes

And it’s something like that rushed decision
That turned out much better than you realised

And it’s something like taking your time
When you really should have other plans

If I felt it on the wind,
Could I make it stay
Before slipping through my hands?
I guess it’s something like that.

But still I say:
In another world this song doesn’t exist
In another world this song doesn’t exist
In another world.

Oh, and my problems are too numerous to list,
And I feel the pressure of the time upon my wrist,
The weight of potential days that I may have missed,
Why do I get wrapped up in this?

Well:
In another world this song wouldn’t exist
In another world this song wouldn’t exist
In another world.

So I think it was worth it
