In This Time

verse 1
I wasn’t looking for forever
when you walked into my life,
but something in your smile
felt like a memory I’d forgot
You were the place my soul recognized,
the calm in all my storms,
and for one brief, holy moment
I thought love had finally come home.
chorus
But the hardest thing in life
is meeting your forever true love
and realizing they weren’t meant to stay
in this lifetime
in this time.
So now I hold you in the quiet,
in the spaces where the heart pretends,
knowing love doesn’t disappear,
it just waits
until we meet again
Until we meet again
verse 2
We talked like we had centuries
of stories left to tell,
like we’d done this dance a thousand times
From the top of heaven to the bottom of hell
But sometimes souls are just passing through,
leaving light where they have been,
and you were the kind of miracle
that doesn’t come twice in one lifetime.
chorus
But the hardest thing in life
is meeting your forever true love
and realizing they weren’t meant to stay
in this lifetime
In this time.
So now I hold you in the quiet,
in the spaces where the heart pretends,
knowing love doesn’t disappear,
it just waits
until we meet again
Until we meet again
bridge
Maybe love is bigger
than the years we get to share,
maybe every lifetime
gives us one more chance to care.
And if the universe is listening,
I’ll find you in the next one too,
’cause forever doesn’t end
just because I’m living without you.
chorus
But the hardest thing in life
is meeting your forever true love
and realizing they weren’t meant to stay
in this lifetime
in this time.
So now I hold you in the quiet,
in the spaces where the heart pretends,
knowing love doesn’t disappear,
it just waits
until we meet again
Until we meet again
