The End Of This Thing
He didn’t notice the end creeping up on him
So many, many months in the try
It was just all wasted time in the end
When she tells him that she's reached the end of this thing
And at the end it’s always storming in the day or the night
When someone turns to say goodbye
The rain is the sky as it begins crying so hard
The thunder the way he still wants to scream at the sight
And just last nights dream was the sexiest thing
About them in the same bed where he lies now bleary eyed
Making love sweet and hard until breathless he came
And his memory brings on loves sweet sting
He didn’t notice that she was laying awake right there in the bed next to him
She was making her mind up that she would be going away
Like a breath of wind that blows and is gone
As the day becomes dark and her shape becomes dim
There’s nothing to yell at and they won’t bother to fight
What is there left to say?
That hasn’t been said in the past anyway
She just turns around and walks away in the storm and the night
And he stands at the door
Wondering how he didn't see the end
As it crept up and happened
As it happened once more
So many, many months in the try
It was just all wasted time in the end
When she tells him that she's reached the end of this thing
And at the end it’s always storming in the day or the night
When someone turns to say goodbye
The rain is the sky as it begins crying so hard
The thunder the way he still wants to scream at the sight
And just last nights dream was the sexiest thing
About them in the same bed where he lies now bleary eyed
Making love sweet and hard until breathless he came
And his memory brings on loves sweet sting
He didn’t notice that she was laying awake right there in the bed next to him
She was making her mind up that she would be going away
Like a breath of wind that blows and is gone
As the day becomes dark and her shape becomes dim
There’s nothing to yell at and they won’t bother to fight
What is there left to say?
That hasn’t been said in the past anyway
She just turns around and walks away in the storm and the night
And he stands at the door
Wondering how he didn't see the end
As it crept up and happened
As it happened once more
