you in a past life Lyrics

Writing love letters to myself when I'm drunk

Then I hide them in my coat pockets

Deep in my closet, so when it's cold again

I feel a little warmth when I find them

Hid a polaroid in the perfect spot

In a coffee shop on 12 South

So when I'm back I'll sit in my spot again

Take a little moment there to reminisce

Things have been good

And they're only getting better

You gotta hold on to that

You gotta believe in it

Oh, you have been loved

And you will be loved again

You gotta hold on to that

You gotta believe it

'Cause when it's half past two in the goddamn morning

And the car can't find you

When the one you want's got his own damn problems

And he just won't call you

You gotta know somebody's looking out for you

Even if it's only a faint light

Even if it's you in a past life

Writing love letters to my kids when I'm drunk

Or the people who will own this apartment after me

And find a letter underneath the left foot of the bed that says

Things, they have been good

And they're only getting better

You gotta hold on to that

You gotta believe it

'Cause when it's half past two in the goddamn morning

And the car can't find you

When the one you want's got his own damn problems

And he just won't call you

You gotta know somebody's looking out for you

Even if it's only a faint light

Even if it's you in a past life

It's better than no one

Yeah it's better than no one

It's better than no one

Even if it's you in the past

In a past life

It's better than no one

Yeah it's better than no one

It's better than no one

It's just you in a past life
