Asleep

Asleep in the arms of another

Dreaming that we were still lovers

Not a single person gets to choose

What they have or what they lose

Our lives became so intertwined

Out of your control or mine

In our time we did our best

Took with the good with all the rest

It's not our job to ever know

When it's probably time to go

Asleep in the arms of another

Dreaming that were still lovers

My brain is broken I'm now convinced

I can't push these thoughts away

It's not some ordinary pain I feel

But an existential dread

And so now it's 3 a.m

I won't pick up up the phone again

Feels like I wanna take a drink

But instead I stop and I think

Someone else can be magical too

Like when our love was still brand new

But then you get to know the stranger

And you find that you're in danger

Of doing it all again

Asleep in the arms of another

Dreaming that we were still lovers
