paroles de chanson This Life - The Afters

I come in to tuck her in
I′m so tired from where I've been
Doing all I can to stay awake
As she goes on about her day
I hang on every word she says
She reaches out and puts her hand in mine
For a moment
We are here together
And it hits me that this won′t last forever
We can't own it
We just get to hold it for a while
We can't keep it
Or save it for another time
He was always there for me
Now he′s fighting just to breathe
I tell him it′s ok to let go
As I look into his eyes
I know that this won't be the last time
But for now
We′re taking different roads
For a moment
We are here together
And it hits me that this won't last forever
What we give is all we have
How we love is what will last
And this hope we know will carry us through this life
We were never meant to stay
So we don′t have to be afraid
Of what is waiting on the other side
