[Verse 1 – Female] You knew me In another life Not another world Just another Version of mine We had places We always went Names for things No one else Would understand And for a while I thought That was forever Maybe we all do When something Feels that true [Pre-Chorus] No one tells us Some forever Can be small And still Be forever While it lasts [Chorus] You were here For a while Long enough To change something Long enough To leave a light In a room I didn't know Was dark You were here For a while And maybe That was enough Not everything Has to stay To have been love [Verse 2] I don't remember Our last ordinary day The last coffee The last time I heard you say my name Without knowing It would become Something I'd remember Funny how Endings happen Before we know They're there [Pre-Chorus] Maybe goodbye Is sometimes Only something We understand Later [Chorus] You were here For a while Long enough To change something Long enough To leave a light In a room I didn't know Was dark You were here For a while And maybe That was enough Not everything Has to stay To have been love [Instrumental] [Bridge] I used to think If something ended Something Must have gone wrong Now I know Some people Belong exactly Where they were Not before Not after Just there And maybe That's why I can remember you Without wishing You were still here [Final Chorus] You were here For a while And I was different Because you were Some of you Stayed with me Some of me Went with you You were here For a while And I wouldn't Change the time I don't need To have you back To be grateful You were mine [Outro] Not forever Not forgotten Just For a while
