In the Meantime Lyrics by Ryan Hayes

2019

[Verse 1]
I was hopin' to stay, stay away
I fear the warmth inside your atmosphere
I'm learnin' to cope
I'm tryin' to be your oxygen
The air that you breathe
[Pre-Chorus]
And there's nothin' to say
Nothin' to do
Staring at me, staring back at you
And I can't walk away
Can't leave it all behind
I'll be right here until the end of time
[Chorus]
Can we start again?
Can we play pretend?
Never mind, go live your life
I'll be here in the meantime
I know the world moved on
But I never did
I can't say that I'll be fine
But I'll be here in the meantime
I'll be here in the meantime
[Verse 2]
I'm just scared of being alone
Living my life
Pretending it'll be just fine
In the dark, I see
In my vision, I fear
I see you on those streets
I see you everywhere
[Pre-Chorus]
And there's nothin' to say
Nothin' to do
Staring at me, staring back at you
And I can't walk away
Can't leave it all behind
I'll be right here until the end of time
[Chorus]
Can we start again?
Can we play pretend?
Never mind, go live your life
I'll be here in the meantime
I know the world moved on
But I never did
I can't say that I'll be fine
But I'll be here in the meantime
[Bridge]
Can we fast forward to the end?
Don't have to pretend everything will fall in line
No, I'll be in the meantime
I'll be here in the meantime
I'll be here in the meantime
I can't live, can't live, can't live
Until I see your face again
I can't live, can't live, can't live
Will I see your face again?
I can't live, can't live, can't live
Until I see your face again
I can't live, can't live, can't live
Time will heal all these wounds
But in the end it's me and you
I'll see your face again sometime
Do you believe me when I say
I'll be here in the meantime?
[Pre-Chorus]
And there's nothin' to say
Nothin' to do
Staring at me, staring back at you
And I can't walk away
Can't leave it all behind
I'll be right here until the end of time
[Outro]
Can we fast forward to the end?
Don't have to pretend everything will fall in line
No, I'll be in the meantime
I'll be here in the meantime
I'll be here in the meantime
Until I see your face again
I can't live, can't live, can't live
Until I see your face again
I can't live, can't live, can't live
Until I see your face again
