Once Upon Another Lifetime
This is about a guy who's remembering past days and how he was so in love with a girl, and he thought it was forever. But like most of us find out, "forever" isn't really that long after all, and life goes on.

God, girl, your taste in music was so terrible
And your taste in those bad boys, even worse
You took your mama's car without permission
Called me freaking out when you hit a curb
But we were very young and very rowdy
Scofflaws steppin' past all their thin lines
And when we fell in love we felt forever
Would always be so heavy, free and bright
(Chorus)
But that was once upon another lifetime
Where the yellow light of youth always shone
Our hearts were stronger then, our hands were smoother
And damn sure they were easier to hold
And once upon another lifetime
We thought love was all there was to do
Never could convince us life was fleeting
Or make us stop believing in our truth
But it's all gone but the memories; we remember that it rhymed
But that was once upon another lifetime
I held you tight beneath the glow of heaven
Our bodies 'pon the Earth merged in the night
Whatever we were doin', it sure was workin'
Whatever we were feelin', it felt right
'Til one day, we blinked and so it was over
I look back now and wonder if we knew
That forever just ain't nothin' if you don't reach it
Still, I thought that we might get there, me and you
(Chorus)
