This is how we like to end |
|
Takes a moment to begin |
|
Time to leave the book behind |
|
And turn the pages of the tide |
|
Plant the memories in a safe place |
|
'Til they grow into an embrace |
|
When they share the separate leaves |
|
Then the branches start to bend |
|
This is how we like to end |
|
This is how we like to live |
|
Sometimes it takes so much to give |
|
Sometimes we're broke until we learn |
|
We blame the world until it turns |
|
But is that how the magic started? |
|
Or is this how we're brokenhearted? |
|
Is this what it takes to try? |
|
We don't always get to win |
|
This is how we like to end |
|
So put your conscience in this cradle |
|
And let it live until we're able |
|
And it's not up to you and me |
|
It's just how we like to mend |
|
This is how we like to end |
|
This is how we learn to breathe |
|
And it's not up to you and me |
|
Takes a moment to begin |
|
This is how we like to end |
|
This is how we live life |
|
This is how we say goodbye |
|
We can't say it by ourselves |
|
So we tell it to a friend |
|
This is how we like to end |
