Lyrics
I see our daughter out playing in the yard
Bright blue eyes sparkling in the sun
I've never seen someone smile so much
Just because they got the chance to run
Then I open up my eyes and see
Again she's faded into the night
Because the hopes and dreams we had for her
Belong to another life
Bridge:
A walk down the aisle that you're never gonna make
Distance grown between too many steps to take
No price I couldn't pay not a thing I wouldn't give
If I could finally live the life I never lived
Chorus:
A house in the country that we always talked about
Those simple nights together just a cuddling on the couch
Now they're only mem'ries of what shoulda been
They all belong now to the life I never lived
Growing old together making silly private jokes
A trip across the country or just down to your folks
That feeling of your lips that I never will forget
Every broken piece of a life I never lived
When I lay down at night I'm dreaming
Though sleep is always far from reach
I want to go back to that blessed place
When I could feel your breath upon my cheek
We were building something special, girl
And I can still see the bridge
The one that was supposed to take us both
To a place where only I can live
I hear your voice calling out to me
And I still feel your hand in mine
Every place that we were s'posed to go
Has now faded so far behind
Bridge:
A walk down the aisle that you're never gonna make
Distance grown between too many steps to take
No price I couldn't pay not a thing I wouldn't give
If I could finally live the life I never lived
Chorus:
A house in the country that we always talked about
Those simple nights together just a cuddling on the couch
Now they're only mem'ries of what shoulda been
They all belong now to the life I never lived
Growing old together making silly private jokes
A trip across the country or just down to your folks
That feeling of your lips that I never will forget
Every broken piece of a life I never lived
