lyrics

i could have stayed
some place by the sea
some place
you’d never find me
or would you
if it was meant to be
i could have stayed
a stranger on the street
a nameless face
you’d never meet
or would i
if it was meant to be

here we are
on the other side of yesterday
it’s anything but dark
and it’s all lined in silver
here we are
we are never lonely
into the by and by
i will let you lead me

it could have gone
a thousand ways
so many permutations
of time and space
but this one
it was meant to be
it could have gone
and passed us by
like a constellation
on a cloudy night
but it was clear
it was meant to be

here we are
on the other side of yesterday
it’s anything but dark
and it’s all lined in silver
here we are
we are never lonely
into the by and by
i will let you lead me
