lyrics

A seaside town, an autumn night it was
the salty air, your laugh, the music in us both.
The theatre seats, the silent audience,
our hushed up revelry, I wished our dance would never end.
And when you spoke I looked up at the moon,
was it confession, or a warning not to stay?
You wondered if I'd heard you say
“In another life.”

Now I am old, but I have wisdom,
enough to understand, how the story goes.
Your body is the page your tale is told upon,
So I won't look away, when the curtain falls.
So many people floating round the sun,
to hope to find someone is more than flesh can bear.
So take a bow and now I'd stay,
in another life.

A seaside town, an autumn night it was,
The music in us both and I still hear your laugh.
It calls to me across the stage, in another life
In another life.
