After Life Lyrics by Isabel van Gelder

You hold my hand inside your pocket
On a Sunday evening, making our way home
How does this feel like magic?
More beautiful than I have ever known
I keep your name inside a locket
Terrified one day I’ll be alone
But you never seem to worry
You say there’s more to us than skin and bone

‘Cause you believe in meant to be
Written in the stars and galaxies
So sure you’ll meet me once again
After life
And I hope that you’re right

You know I love to have it my way
In arguments there only is one truth
But when it comes to dreaming
I wish I could be a little more like you

‘Cause you believe in meant to be
Written in the stars and galaxies
So sure you’ll meet me once again
After life
I never thought there was more above
The end is still the end, even if it is love
And when my time will come along
Close my eyes
And hope that you were right, mm (Mm)

You hold my hand inside your pocket
On a Sunday evening, making our way home
I hope that I’m not dreaming
More beautiful that I have ever known
