Call it bad luck
Call it timing, the stars not aligning
Ah-oh-oh
Call it distance
Call it maybe we're just way too different
Ah-oh-oh

The harder we're working, the more that it's hurting
We're all outta calls for help
The curtain is closing, and everyone knows it
But I'm gonna tell myself

Maybe the next life, we'll get another chance
Maybe the next time, everything goes to plan
I would be yours, you would be mine
Maybe we just need one more try
And maybe the next life
You won't slip through my hands

Call me crazy
Call me foolish and caught in a daydream
Ah-oh-oh
But I'm holding
On to hope that the door will reopen
Ah-oh-oh

And you're gonna call me and ask me to coffee
In ten years or maybe twelve
But, until it happens, I'm here on my mattress
And all I can tell myself

Maybe the next life, we'll get another chance
Maybe the next time, everything goes to plan
I would be yours, you would be mine
Maybe we just need one more try
And maybe the next life
You won't slip through my hands

In the next life
In the next life
In the next life
(Mm-mm, mm-mm)
In the next life
In the next life
In the next life
(Mm-mm, mm-mm)

Maybe the next life, we'll get another chance
Maybe the next time, I'll be a better man
I would be yours, you would be mine
Maybe we just need one more try
And maybe the next life
You won't slip through my hands
