If We Were Vampires Song Lyrics

It’s not the long, flowing dress that you’re in

Or the light coming off of your skin

The fragile heart you protected for so long

Or the mercy in your sense of right and wrong

It’s not your hands searching slow in the dark

Or your nails leaving love’s watermark

It’s not the way you talk me off the roof

Your questions like directions to the truth…

******

It’s knowing that this can’t go on forever

Likely one of us will have to spend some days alone

Maybe we’ll get forty years together

But one day I’ll be gone

Or one day you’ll be gone…

******

If we were vampires and death was a joke

We’d go out on the sidewalk and smoke

And laugh at all the lovers and their plans

I wouldn’t feel the need to hold your hand

Maybe time running out is a gift

I’ll work hard ’til the end of my shift

And give you every second I can find

And hope it isn’t me who’s left behind…

******

It’s knowing that this can’t go on forever

Likely one of us will have to spend some days alone

Maybe we’ll get forty years together

But one day I’ll be gone

Or one day you’ll be gone..

******

It’s knowing that this can’t go on forever

Likely one of us will have to spend some days alone

Maybe we’ll get forty years together

But one day I’ll be gone

One day you’ll be gone..

If We Were Vampires Song Chords

It’s not the long, flowing dress that you’re in

Or the light coming off of your skin

The fragile heart you protected for so long

Or the mercy in your sense of right and wrong

It’s not your hands sear ching slow in the dark

Or your nails leaving love’s watermark

It’s not the way you talk me off the roof

Your questions like dire ctions to the truth

It’s knowing that this can’t go on forever

Likely one of us will have to spe nd some days alone

Maybe we’ll get forty years together

But one day I’ll be gone

Or one day you’ll be gone

If we were vampires and death was a joke

We’d go out on the sidewalk and smoke

Laugh at all the lovers and their plans

I wouldn’t feel the need to ho ld your hand

Maybe time running out is a gift

I’ll work hard ’til the end of my shift

And give you every second I can find

And hope it isn’t me who’s left behind

It’s knowing that this can’t go on forever

Likely one of us will have to spe nd some days alone

Maybe we’ll get forty years together

But one day I’ll be gone

Or one day you’ll be gone

It’s knowing that this can’t go on forever

Likely one of us will have to spe nd some days alone

Maybe we’ll get forty years together

But one day I’ll be gone

Or one day you’ll be gone
