The Life We Almost Lived

Verse 1 The boxes never reached the door The pictures never touched the walls The keys we never held together Still echo through these empty halls Every dream we built in silence Still hangs above me like a ghost Not broken by the things we lost But haunted by the things we chose Pre-Chorus And every road I didn't take Still carries your name Every future we imagined Still burns inside the frame Chorus I still see the lights in the house we never had Still hear the laughs from the nights we never shared Somewhere in another life We're still dancing in the kitchen I don't miss you I miss the life we almost lived I don't miss you I miss the life we almost lived Verse 2 I see our shadows growing older Silver slowly in our hair Children running through the hallway Like they were always waiting there The birthdays and the Sunday mornings The stories that we never told Sometimes the dreams we never lived Feel more alive than growing old Pre-Chorus And every road I didn't take Still carries your name Every future we imagined Still burns inside the frame Chorus I still see the lights in the house we never had Still hear the laughs from the nights we never shared Somewhere in another life We're still dancing in the kitchen I don't miss you I miss the life we almost lived I don't miss you I miss the life we almost lived Bridge Maybe somewhere time was kinder Maybe somewhere we survived Maybe somewhere we kept choosing Not to let the feeling die Maybe somewhere past the silence Past the fear and all the doubt There's a version of tomorrow Where we finally worked it out Final Chorus I still see the lights in the house we never had Still hear the laughs from the nights we never shared Somewhere in another life We're still dancing in the kitchen I don't miss you I miss the life we almost lived I don't miss you I miss the life we almost lived Outro The house is gone The years moved on But some dreams never leave I don't miss you I miss the life we almost lived. 🎵
