[Verse 1] I spent my yes on names I can't recall, Gave every almost everything I had. Then you arrived, and every borrowed hour Turned sharp with all the promises I made. [Pre-Chorus] I can’t unspend the years behind my eyes; I can’t untie the vows that keep me still. You’re standing in the life I should have chosen, And I’m watching from the wrong side of will. [Chorus] If I could live another life, I’d find you, Before my heart was pledged away in pieces. I’d meet you with my whole name, whole and open— Not this half-life counting what it misses. You’re the love I would have grown into, The one my every other road ran through. If I could live another life, I’d find you; This one lets you go, though I still choose you. [Verse 2] Too many hands have held the best of me; Too many vows still pull against my stride. You came like truth I knew too late to answer, And now I watch our almost pass me by. [Bridge] Maybe somewhere time began again, I kept my heart for when your heart came near. In that life I say your name without a cost; In this one, loving you means disappear. [Final Chorus] If I could live another life, I’d find you, Before my heart was pledged away in pieces. I’d meet you with my whole name, whole and open— Not this half-life counting what it misses. You’re the love I would have grown into, The one my every other road ran through. If I could live another life, I’d find you; This one lets you go, though I still choose you.
