Songtexte If We Were Vampires - Motel Drive feat. Poor Mans Poison

Maybe we'll get 40 years together
(One day I'll be gone) One day I'll be gone
One day you'll be gone

It's not the long flowing dress that you're in
Or the light coming off of your skin
The fragile heart you've protected for so long
The mercy in your sense of right and wrong
It's not your hand searching slow in the dark
Or your nails leaving love's watermark
It's not the way you talked me off the roof
Your questions like directions to the truth

It's knowing that this can't go on forever
Likely one of us will have to spend some days alone
Maybe we'll get 40 years together
One day I'll be gone
One day you'll be gone

If we were vampires and death was a joke
We'd go out on the sidewalk and smoke
Laugh at all the lovers and their plans
And I wouldn't feel the need to hold your hand
Maybe time running out is a gift
I'll work hard till the end of my shift
And give you every second I can find
And hope it is me who's left behind

It's knowing that this can't go on forever
Likely one of us will have to spend some days alone
Maybe we'll get 40 years together
One day I'll be gone
One day you'll be gone

It's knowing that this can't go on forever
Likely one of us will have to spend some days alone
Maybe we'll get 40 years together
(One day I'll be gone) One day I'll be gone
One day you'll be gone

One day you'll be gone
