Before We’re Dead Lyrics by Semler

2019

I saw you in a pale New England sky, A plane flyin' by
And you were sitting in Economy
Studying the buoys down below and I bet you didn't know
I was a spec on the dock
I heard you at a crowd, a local bar, a voice from afar
Callin' out for a friend
Tried to find you in the clouds of smoke, perfume on your coat
Lost me again

(Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh)

Oh, is it loud in here or is it the blood beatin' in my head?
Pulsin' from here to weir, will I see you before we're dead?

(Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh)

I wish I knew the place where lovers go when their hearts grow cold
Adventure to see
Travel 'round the world a hundredfold, penniless and all
To bring you back to me

Oh, is it loud in here or is it the blood beatin' in my head?
Pulsin' from here to weir, will I see you before we're dead?

(Will I see you before we're dead?)

Oh, it's so loud in here, all the blood's beatin' in my head
Pulsin' from here to weir, will I see you before we're dead?

(Will I see you before we're dead?)
