We Have History

Enjoy your weekend and my new lyrics, inspired by a dramatic love story. 

We have history
By Michelle Morris
08/09/2023

When I'm lying in my bed alone
And I picture you in my mind
I'm reminded of our history
Why I chose not to pursue the fight

And all the sleepless nights
Overthinking and over feeling
They weigh down my heart's beating
They slow down my soul's dreaming 

We have history, we have destiny
We have heartbreak, we have friction
We have history, we have destiny
We have heartbreak, we have friction

Our souls dance and spark
Our souls dance and spark
But our hearts keep bleeding
When we cut them on our words 

Life keeps breaking us apart 
Life keeps breaking us apart
But we hold on to hope and sanity
Every time we try and try again

We have history, we have destiny
We have heartbreak, we have friction
We have history, we have destiny
We have heartbreak, we have friction

When I'm flying with the stars in my dreams 
And I picture you beside me 
I'm reminded of our history
Why we couldn't fly together forever 

And all the dashed hopes
The crossed lines and tears
They drown my heart's healing 
They beat down my soul's freedom 

We have history, we have destiny
We have heartbreak, we have friction
We have history, we have destiny
We have heartbreak, we have friction
