just to have

a lifetime with you

i've cried

in si-

lence

with no sense of direction

caught up in the tug

of lifting meat hooks

vs gravity

and responsibility

it's sending me toward the soil

don't give me that look

i see your face

then it disappears

into the clouds I want to go

just to have 

a lifetime with you

just to have

a lifetime with you

i would die

and go to find

heaven

with wirecutters and a jacket

get the devil

to destract Peter

break in

then turn a spotlight on him

yelling "look!"

"stop that man!"

and disappear

into the clouds searching for you

just to have 

a lifetime with you

i know I've been told

to leave you 

behind,

staying here

i know I'm supposed

to carry on

a cross

for us both

not whisper too loud

never shout

that I need you back

so I don't say much

..to anyone

when it comes down to

just to have

a lifetime with you

is all I want to do

(it's what I'm missing now)

when it comes down to

just to have

a lifetime with you

is all I want to do

(it's what I'm missing now)

but I know

I know

I know 

Forever 

will have to do

...because I have hearts here too

a lifetime here

forever there

a lifetime here

forever there

when we're all together

sounds so good

sounds so good
