This life is a dream When I wake up I feel your face smiling over at me. And you tell me that you love me, And I light up when you touch me and this life is all that I need. But heaven was just illusion One hell a better conclusion To this life with you. So I stay out late at night Tryin' to hock a room with my guitar And sing my "poor me's" at another lonesome bar Unrehearsed, diyin' of thirst and cursed with the other life. And sometimes I sit and look at old pictures and air another unanswered prayer But I won't look too long 'cause I'm just not that strong so I pretend for a moment you still care. And like these pictures that life would frame There ain't a song that I would not trade for one minute with you. So I stay out late at night Tryin' to hock a room with my guitar And sing my "poor me's" at another lonesome bar Unrehearsed, diyin' of thirst and cursed with the other life. Yeah the other life. So I stay out late at night Tryin' to hock a room with my guitar And sing my "poor me's" at another lonesome bar Unrehearsed, diyin' of thirst and cursed with the other life. Oh the other life With the other life.
