Past Lives

Past livescouldn't ever hold me down Lost love is sweeter whenit's finally found I've got the strangest feeling Thisisn't our first time around Past livescouldn't ever come between us Some time the dreamers finally wake up Don't wake me up,I'm not dreaming Don't wake me up,I'm not dreaming Past livescouldn't ever hold me down Lost love is sweeter whenit's finally found I've got the strangest feeling Thisisn't our first time around Past livescouldn't ever come between us Some time the dreamers finally wake up Don't wake me up,I'm not dreaming Don't wake me up,I'm not dreaming Past livescouldn't ever hold me down Lost love is sweeter whenit's finally found I've got the strangest feeling Thisisn't our first time around Past livescouldn't ever come between us Some time the dreamers finally wake up Don't wake me up,I'm not dreaming Don't wake me up,I'm not dreaming I've been looking for you longer thanI've known your name Every face in every crowd always looked the same Until you turned around and the whole world went quiet That's when I knew— thisisn't random, this is riot They say past livescouldn't hold me down, andthey're right I broke through every one just to find you that night Every door, every war, every time I died inside Was just a page I turned to get back to your side And losing you once taught me what I almost missed That's why found love hits different— it tastes like a fist Not soft, not easy, not the way they write in poems It's holding on so tight you forget where your skin ends and your bones begin You asked me why I get that look in my eyes LikeI'm seeing someone else whenI'm watching you smile It's because I am—I've seen that smile a thousand times before In a different life, on a different shore, butit's always yours So when you sayyou've got a feeling thisisn't our first time Just knowI've been counting the lifetimes like a nursery rhyme One where we made it, one where we almost did And this one right here? This is the one where I never wake up from the dream we live Past livescouldn't ever hold me down Lost love is sweeter whenit's finally found I've got the strangest feeling Thisisn't our first time around Past livescouldn't ever come between us Some time the dreamers finally wake up Don't wake me up,I'm not dreaming Don't wake me up,I'm not dreaming Past livescouldn't ever hold me down Don't wake me up... I'm notdreamin'...
