A Lifetime in a Day

I thought no one was as brave as me, but in city lights, I plainly see
​The fearless that lives behind his smile." 

A Lifetime in a Day

Verse 1
The first time that I saw him he looked like he was in a beam of sun
For years I’ve traveled all around, and a man loves me in every town
But the light refracted different through this one

Verse 2
The pattern was familiar, but I think our feet were inches off the floor
The other men admired me, but this one saw inside of me
And he noticed things nobody had before

Pre-chorus 1
But that don’t change the time, though
I’m moving on tomorrow

Chorus
So we lived a lifetime in a day
We lived a lifetime in a day

Verse 3
When he took me to Chicago, we strolled along the river and the Mile 
I thought no one was as brave as me, but in city lights I plainly see
The fearlessness that lives behind his smile

Pre-chorus 2
‘Cause the only way to win is when you let somebody in

Chorus
 
Bridge
He loved me so he said to stay
I loved him, but I had to say

Pre-C
That that don’t change the time, though
I’m moving on tomorrow

Chorus
So we lived a lifetime in a day
We lived a lifetime in a day
