If We Were Vampires (Spotify Singles)

[Verse 1: Noah Kahan]

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

Or the light coming off of your skin

The fragile heart you've protected for so long

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

[Chorus: Noah Kahan]

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

It's likely one of us will have to spend some days alone

Maybe we'll get forty years together

But, one day, I'll be gonе

One day, you'll be gone

[Verse 2: Wesley Schultz]

If wе 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

[Chorus: Wesley Schultz]

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

It's 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

And, one day, you'll be gone

[Instrumental Break]

[Chorus: Noah Kahan & Wesley Schultz]

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

It's likely one of us will have to spend some days alone

Maybe we'll get forty years together

One day, I'll be gone

And, one day, you'll be gone

[Outro: Noah Kahan & Wesley Schultz]

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

It's 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

And, one day, you'll be gone
