Past Lives Lyrics
[Verse 1]
We were lovers in a past life
I can see it in your green eyes
Maybe you were one of my wives
In a long-lost tribe
There's just somethin' 'bout you I know
Started centuries ago, though
You see, your kiss is like a lost ghost
Only I would know
[Pre-Chorus]
But I, I keep on falling
For you
[Chorus]
Time after time
Time after time
I'll make you mine
Time after...
Time after time
[Verse 2]
See, millenniums ago, love
We were nothing more than stardust
Just the galaxy beneath us
We found weight
Then we made it through the Ice Age
But I lost you in the Crusades
I built the pyramids for you, babe
Just to see your face
We were lovers in a past life
I can see it in your green eyes
Maybe you were one of my wives
In a long-lost tribe
There's just somethin' 'bout you I know
Started centuries ago, though
You see, your kiss is like a lost ghost
Only I would know
[Pre-Chorus]
But I, I keep on falling
For you
[Chorus]
Time after time
Time after time
I'll make you mine
Time after...
Time after time
[Verse 2]
See, millenniums ago, love
We were nothing more than stardust
Just the galaxy beneath us
We found weight
Then we made it through the Ice Age
But I lost you in the Crusades
I built the pyramids for you, babe
Just to see your face
