Jerry Livingston - Lifetime [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

[Verse 1]
Love, if I could write you a song
Maybe the world would sing along
Then at least the city would cry out your name with me
I had a dream where I woke up strong
And lifted the weight you've carried on
All your secrets and your pretty lies are safe with me

[Pre-Chorus]
Tell me, what have we become lately?
All our bridges are breaking
Are we dying or waking?
Are we lovers or friends?
Are we trusting a daydream?
Are we something worth saving?

[Chorus]
What if the day we met was the beginning of the end? (End, end)
I wish I never fell in love, but I did (Did, did)
'Cause all the time we had was never mine to spend (Spend, spend)
Now I'm stuck between the living and the dead (Dead)
But I'd wait a lifetime to see you again

[Post-Chorus]
(Woah, woah)
Oh, I'd wait a lifetime to see you again
(Woah, woah)
Love, I'd wait a lifetime to see you again

[Verse 2]
Are we facing the end tonight?
If this is a war, I'm picking sides
Tell me, will you take this life or walk away from me?
I had to lose myself to find
You're the light in my low, and your breath is my high
Now I'm stuck across the world just waiting on ya

[Pre-Chorus]
Tell me, what have we become lately?
All our bridges are breaking
Are we dying or waking?
Are we lovers or friends?
Are we trusting a daydream?
Are we something worth saving?

[Chorus]
What if the day we met was the beginning of the end? (End, end)
I wish I never fell in love, but I did (Did, did)
'Cause all the time we had was never mine to spend (Spend, spend)
Now I'm stuck between the living and the dead (Dead)
But I'd wait a lifetime to see you again

[Post-Chorus]
(Woah, woah)
Oh, I'd wait a lifetime to see you again
(Woah, woah)
Oh, I'd wait a lifetime to see you again
[Outro]
What do I have to gain if there's nothing to lose? (Ooh, ooh, ooh)
Would it still feel the same if I never met you?
What if the day we met was the beginning of the end? (End, end)
Now I'm stuck between the living and the dead (Dead, dead)
But I'd wait a lifetime to see you again
