[Verse 1]
It took me so long to write this song because this is my greatest story
It’s the soundtrack to the movie of us that lives on in your memory
It’s so beautiful where I am that no one ever comes back from here
But I swear I come back every time you think of me
And I already asked the boss if I could come visit you a couple of times
He let me slip away at night to watch over you while you’re sleeping
To give you a kiss every time you cry, whether from sadness or from joy
I’ll be waiting for you here, but it’s still not time

[Chorus]
But in the meantime, trust and live without fear, live so fully
That you don’t even have time to think that I’m missing
As long as you keep loving the one who’s not here
No matter how far they go, they never really leave

[Verse 2]
One day God was short a player for a game that had to be played
And I was happy that the owner of the ball wanted to play with me
And I described your eyes to the angels up in heaven
And they’re standing before God in line, waiting to come down and see them
Because the boss gave me permission to come visit you a couple of times
He let me slip away at night to watch over you while you’re sleeping
To give you a kiss every time you cry, whether from sadness or from joy
And I’ll be waiting for you here, but it’s still not time
But it’s still not time

[Chorus]
But in the meantime, trust and live without fear, live so fully
That you don’t even have time to think that I’m missing
As long as you keep loving the one who’s not here
But it’s still not time

[Outro]
But in the meantime, trust and live without fear, live so fully
That you don’t even have time to think that I’m missing
As long as you keep loving the one who’s not here

No matter how far they go, they never really leave
