Lyrics

Next Time Around
Guess I?ll see you in the next life; See you the next time around
For now we?re heading our separate ways
Packing up our hearts, and burning right along through another day
You know I wonder if you?ll feel free, or if your head?s still tangled up in me
But if you don?t call that won?t trouble me at all

?Cause I?ll see you in the next life, see you the next time around
But I?m wondering who you?ll be when it isn?t me by your side
You don?t settle me down, but I?m glad to have you around
And you may not think it much, but know that I?ve been touched

And I?ll see you in the next life, see you in the next same place
But you?ll be wearing a different face , and you?ll love me in a different way
But I won?t complain, the only thing I?ve grown accustomed to is change

I?ll see you in the next life, see you on the next lonely road
When I?m feeling like I?m almost home, but we both know we still got so far to go
But when you leave you know I?ll be waving to you hello

I?m a wandering around town, trying not to let myself get too down
?cause if I?m feeling strange I?ve only got myself to blame
And though we parted ways baby please don?t hesitate

To see me in the next life, see me the next time around
Love me in the next life, love me the next time around

?Cause you know there just aint time, when you?re living the rambler?s life
And you know you?re never free, when you?ve always got someplace to be
Though we?ve gone our separate ways, I think we?re headed to the same damn place

So I?ll see you in the next life, see you the next time around

For I don?t feel I?d still please you, if I didn?t have to leave you
And I know that you don?t need me, babe, so I don?t mind your leaving

I?ll see you in the next life, see you the next time around
Love you in the next life; love you the next time around

When the white noise of the road leads your mind to overload
And the beauty tat surrounds you drink it in and let it drown you one more time
And when the morning comes, and you?re feeling a little numb
And you find you?re talking to yourself so you don?t feel so alone

Know you can see me in the next life; see me the next time around
Love me in the next life; love me the next time around
See me in the next life; see me the next time around
