Such As It Ends

I've been losing sleep for days.

You've been searching through the deserts and the caves.

Your postcards hit me in the waves

sadly stinging me with songs of yesterday.

Love, such as it ends

breaking the hearts that wouldn't bend

closes the doors you used to listen through.

(But it goes on...) Love, such as it ends

into the flames, we'll start again

and in the end I'll be with you.

You've been burning up for days

trying to gather all the figures in the clay.

You know they can't all be saved.

Leave the weak ones, find a modicum of shade.

Love, such as it ends

breaking the hearts that wouldn't bend

closes the doors you used to listen through.

(But it goes on...) Love, such as it ends

into the flames, we'll start again

and in the end I'll be with you.

I've been vacant for so long, but you were there.

You look so tired. Now just please,

love let me take it on my shoulders

and we might make it home.

Love, such as it ends

breaking the hearts that wouldn't bend...

Love, such as it ends

breaking the hearts that wouldn't bend

closes the doors you used to listen through.

(But it goes on...) Love, such as it ends

into the flames, we'll start again

and in the end I'll be with you.

Love, such as it ends... Love, such as it ends...

and in the end, I'll be with you.
