How can it end? Refrain Where do all the dreams return When they melt away? Where do all the broken hearted songs Stop singing And resign themselves to fate? Why did you go Though we were running freely Through open meadows of fire and waterfalls? I thought we'd always last In this story we brought into being Now all I am is leaving me so slowly I'll never understand why I'm lonely We once had it all It only comes in my mind in shattered little frames All of the times my heart hears you name I loved you I loved you in my universe
Long Version
How can it end? Refrain I can't amend this pain... Where do all the dreams return When they melt away? Where do all the broken hearted songs Stop singing And resign themselves to fate? Why did you go Though we were running freely Through open meadows of fire and waterfalls? I thought we'd always last In this story we brought into being Now all I am is leaving me so slowly I'll never understand why I'm lonely We once had it all It only comes in my mind in shattered little frames All of the times my heart hears you name I loved you I loved you in my universe How can it end? Refrain I can't amend this pain... I can't undo the years I was living in the sunlight The way your hands would lead I was the loveliest thing That you could hold How did we know this love Would've had end up conquering Our hearts in the blinding On anywhere to start? I can't undo the years I was living in the sunlight The way your hands would lead I was the loveliest thing That you could hold How did we know this love Would've had end up conquering Our hearts in the blinding On anywhere to start? How can it end? Refrain I can't amend this pain... |
