歌詞

When I was young, I’d lie awake at night

Wondering what happens when we die

I couldn’t understand how I could be

Here today, then gone without a trace

I wanted someone to tell me

There was nothing I should fear

But nobody had the answer

So I carried it for years

If someday I have to disappear

Why was I ever here at all?

Maybe nothing lasts forever

Maybe nothing has to

If I have the time to love someone

And leave a little light behind

Maybe I don’t need forever

To know I lived a life

I grew older, watched the years go by

Lost some things I thought would always stay

And somewhere in between goodbye and love

I learned to see it another way

Maybe life was never meant

To give us every answer

Maybe what we leave in others

Is the closest thing to forever

If someday I have to disappear

Maybe that’s why I hold you close

Every moment means a little more

Because I know someday it goes

Nothing has to last forever

For it to mean everything

If the love I gave stays with you

That’s enough for me

Sometimes I still see that little kid

Wide awake at two a.m

If I could sit beside him now

I’d tell him this instead

You don’t have to know the ending

You don’t have to lose the fear

There are mornings worth waking for

And people worth being here

I know someday I’ll disappear

And yeah, it still scares me sometimes

But I don’t need to know what comes next

To know I’m glad I had this life

Maybe meaning isn’t waiting

Somewhere out there to be found

Every hand I’ve held and heart I’ve loved

Was the answer all along

So close your eyes, you can sleep now

Morning’s waiting on the other side

You never needed forever

Just a tomorrow

Worth being alive for

I still don’t know what happens when we die

But there’s still so much

I want to wake up for
