  • Lyrics: AFTER VERSE 1: Have a hand on control, another reachin’ the unknown, The space between: where I float. Expectations, TV stations, I am blind, you don’t see. After the smoke clears you know I will still be here. Once all the dust settles, I may be forever. VERSE 2: “Tell me what you’ve done to the man I loved.” “Well, I killed him a year ago.” Give me every letter that you never thought I’d read, not ever: “Sorry I made you love me.” After the smoke clears you know I will still be here. Once all the dust settles, I may be forever. CHORUS 1: I cannot stand to look back and ask, “What if this happened like that?” You say, “Don’t worry, you need not.” I cannot stand to look back and ask, “What if this happened like that?” You say, “Don’t worry, you will not have to.” VERSE 3: After the smoke clears you know I will still be here. Once all the dust settles, I may be forever. After the smoke clears you know I will still be here. Once all the dust settles, I may be forever. CHORUS 3: I cannot stand to look back and ask, “What if this happened like that?” You say, “Don’t worry, you will not have to. You will not have to.” WORDS: Johannes MUSIC: Johannes, Laforest, McGlynn COPYRIGHT © 2009 SOCAN/ASCAP/BMI
