The End of Love

I feel nervous in a way that can't be named

I dreamt last night of a sign that read, "the end of love"

And I remember thinking

Even in my dreaming it was a good line for a song

We're a family pulled from a flood

You tore the floorboards up

And let the river rush in

Not wash away, wash away

We were reaching in the dark

That summer in New York

And it was so far to fall

But it didn't hurt at all

And let it wash away, wash away

And in a moment of joy and fury I threw myself

From the balcony like my grandmother so many years before me

I've always been in love with you

Could you tell it from the moment that I met you?

We're a family pulled from a flood

You tore the floorboards up

And let the river rush in

Not wash away, wash away

We were reaching in the dark (wash away)

That summer in New York (wash away)

And was it so far to fall (wash away)

Said it didn't hurt at all

And let it wash away, wash away

And Joshua came down from the mountain

With a tablet in his hands

Told me that he loved me, yeah

And then ghosted me again

We were reaching in the dark

That summer in New York

And it was so far to fall

But it didn't hurt at all

I let it wash away, wash away

Reaching in the dark (wash away)

That summer in New York (wash away)

And was it so far to fall (wash away)

Said it didn't hurt at all

And let it wash away, wash away
