I saw your face and felt it all
A name I’d known since I was small
But fate had played a silent game
And gave us love without a name
Your hands fell right inside of mine
But all the stars misread the sign
We stood beneath the moon so wide
But couldn’t let the world collide
Just one lifetime late, that’s all we missed
The spring we missed, the fall
We wrote a story with no page
A fire burned beyond the cage
If only time had bent our way
We’d be forever night someday
The laughter fades but not the ache
The space you fill, the breath I take
I tuck your name inside my soul
A secret place where I stay whole
So hold me there in dreams at night
Where love is free and time is right
And if there’s more than what we see
Then meet me where we’re meant to be
Just one lifetime late, too true
But I still live each day with you
And in the next I’ll make it right
We’ll ride our stars in soft delight
No missing steps, no cruel mistake
Not one life late, just love awake
