# Parallel Lives

**[Intro]**  
Mmm… yeah  
Sometimes I wonder  
What we’d still be  
If feelings never changed the key

**[Verse 1]**  
In a parallel life, we’re still texting at midnight  
Laughing at stupid memes, no hidden weight inside  
You’d tell me ‘bout your dates, I’d give you honest advice  
We’d meet for coffee Sundays, no need to think twice

You’d drag me to bad movies, I’d be your wingman still  
We’d roast each other’s haircuts, never get our fill  
No awkward silences, no reading into signs  
Just two old friends who made it through the test of time

**[Pre-Chorus]**  
No fading, no distance  
No mercy in letting go  
Just staying, just easy  
The way it used to flow

**[Chorus]**  
In parallel lives, we’re still friends  
No almost hanging in the air  
Still dancing in the kitchen as friends  
No empty seats anywhere  
You call me when you’re broken  
I call you when I’m down  
In parallel lives, we kept it  
The rarest kind around  
Yeah, in parallel lives  
We’re still us  
Safe and sound

**[Verse 2]**  
Maybe in that world, we’re forty at a café  
Talking like no years passed, same table by the bay  
You’d show me pics of your kids, I’d tease you ‘bout your gray  
We’d say “remember when” and laugh the night away

We’d travel once a year, cheap flights and inside jokes  
No weirdness in the hugs, no words we never spoke  
The purest kind of steady, the safest place to land  
A friendship that just lasted ‘cause nobody crossed the line

**[Pre-Chorus]**  
No gray, no pretending  
No kindness dressed as goodbye  
Just yes to every tomorrow  
With you right by my side

**[Bridge]**  
I don’t visit often  
But sometimes late at night  
I think about that version  
And it feels so right  
Not better, not worse  
Just different, just pure  
A friendship that survived  
Because love never knocked on the door

**[Final Chorus]** *(softer, warm and accepting)*  
In parallel lives, we’re still friends  
And maybe that’s enough to see  
How beautiful it could have been  
If feelings stayed asleep  
I hope you found your people  
Who love you loud and true  
And I’ll keep dancing in my kitchen  
To the songs we knew  
Yeah, in parallel lives  
We stayed friends  
And here in this one  
I’m glad we tried  
At least for a while

**[Outro]**  
Mmm…  
Parallel lives  
Somewhere we’re still laughing  
Just like old times…
