What if we could see into the future?
What if we knew how the story ends?
Would I have known the wave, the thrill
When you walked in the room
And felt for once at home in my own skin?
Even when you can’t pinpoint what’s missing
Emptiness is real as night is dark
But here you are, the piece that’s somehow been there all along
Which joined in fate cannot be torn apart
Our time is bittersweet
It makes us blind to eternity
So we’re surprised by what it brings
Like when it brought you back to me
Love is gravity to hearts in orbit
And all I want is to be next to you
So I won’t waste one single hour imagining a day
When there is one moon where there once was two
Our time is bittersweet
It makes us blind to eternity
So we’re surprised by what it brings
Like when it brought you back to me
Love isn’t bound by the ages
I’ll look for you through the changes
And I’ll be amazed
Again and again
Time is bittersweet
We are blind to eternity
So we’re surprised by what it brings
It always brings you back to me
What if we could see into the future?
What if stories start over again?
