If we met in another story
Things could have worked out differently
I'd have parted that tidal wave for our journey
I'd have carried you up and over the blackest tsunami
Placed your body upon the rocks at my most tenderly
Guarding your crippled wings from harm's way
From the bottom of the sea I'd carry our treasured intimacy
And by your side I'd be waiting there patiently
'til your awakening loyally

If we met in another world away
A place where the past is history
No space, no room, crowded and lonely
No smiles in the midst of fury
Me and you not two, but one, we'd stay
If we met in another movie
The start, middle and end would end our way

From some gothic horror story to a murder mystery
To a sad comic book fantasy, to a real life documentary
In the dying moments on bended knee heroically
The twist in our scripted love story

If we met in another VHS tape
I wouldn't hit eject before it got too scary
I'd try hitting pause to stay a little longer in that perfect picture frame
I'd hold rewind 'til our opportunity arose again
If I'd ever a second chance at the start of the tape
I'd go back, this time not press [STOP]
I'd press [PLAY]
I'd press [PLAY]
