歌词

[00:05.222] My life started when I
[00:08.342] Went for a jog
[00:09.421] And spotted you in the park
[00:12.637] Sitting with a dog
[00:14.799] So I stopped and asked,
[00:16.935] "can I pet your dog?"
[00:19.118] And so there we were, me and this golden retriever,
[00:21.556] Basking in the abundance of sun austin provides and
[00:25.630] Suddenly you blurted out,
[00:28.057] "this isn't my dog.
[00:29.646] Actually, it's my friend's dog, sheila
[00:32.898] I'm taking care of her while he's away
[00:35.577] She's on a lot of medication."
[00:40.468] And I laughed and you laughed
[00:42.080] Saying you didn't want to be found out
[00:43.427] When you asked me to coffee
[00:45.808] And there was no dog
[00:48.258] I said yes
[00:49.336] And you said
[00:51.218] "I'm Jase, what's your name?"
[00:55.550] And I heard the perfect opportunity
[01:01.243] To be someone else entirely
[01:06.370] Free from my history
[01:10.966] For one single cup of coffee
[01:14.472] I would be natalie
[01:20.103] Obviously, that's not how it went down. one cup of
[01:23.031] Coffee turned into two bottles of wine, three
[01:25.722] Desserts and staying up talking until four in the
[01:27.895] Morning. too late to backpedal, too good not to keep going.
[01:34.557] It felt like my life but a better version
[01:44.497] With you in my life I was a better person
[01:51.528] I heard music in the words you were saying
[01:55.038] Melodies with no band playing
[01:58.278] For the first time I was
[02:01.760] In love
[02:06.868] And I loved
[02:10.903] Who I was with you.
[02:17.627] All the mundane shit I used to hate like
[02:20.324] Recycling plastic and flossing everyday
[02:22.739] Making breakfast, paying bills
[02:24.909] Watering the plants on our windowsill
[02:27.579] Was invigorated with your sense of wonder.
[02:30.541] Pillow talk, afternoon walks
[02:32.690] Holding hands in the parking lot
[02:34.849] Of home depot, dealing with inevitable
[02:37.253] Misfortunes that were barely manageable
[02:39.941] Like that time we accidentally hit a squirrel with your car.
[02:45.873] That was an unfortunate anecdote
[02:50.789] But do you know what I mean?
[02:54.529] It felt like my life but a better version
[03:04.450] With you in my life I was a better person
[03:11.802] I heard music in the words you were saying
[03:15.334] Melodies with no band playing
[03:18.573] For the first time I was
[03:22.078] In love
[03:26.907] And I loved
[03:30.949] Who I was with you.
[03:37.695] My parents finally tracked me down
[03:39.889] After years of jumping from town to town
[03:42.859] They found
[03:44.485] You and me
[03:45.541] Men in suits at our front door
[03:47.408] Asking you about Judith ford
[03:49.849] And I knew
[03:51.184] Instantly
[03:56.294] They say before you die
[03:59.208] Your whole life flashes before your very eyes
[04:03.766] Well it didn't the first time
[04:05.963] But this time I heard
[04:08.391] Each and every lie
[04:12.441] I'd ever told you
[04:14.893] I tried to cling to
[04:17.610] The life I'd made
[04:19.758] Together with you
[04:22.428] So I did the only thing I knew how to
[04:27.547] I denied who I was because
[04:35.094] I wanted to keep my life, but the better version
[04:45.873] Natalie, your wife, she was a better person
[04:53.670] I memorized your voice and how you say goodbye
[04:57.974] But you never said goodbye, you never said goodbye
[05:03.305] And I held onto our life
[05:11.885] And who I was with you
[05:17.250] Who I was with you
[05:22.125] Who I was with you.
