The birds still sing outside these
|
These windows
|
Where we sat together
|
Like nothing ever happened here oh
|
The white house on the hill
|
And black clouds the weather
|
And the church spire, over the river
|
She still sits there
|
Warm, in the evening glow
|
But you don't care about
|
These scenes I treasure
|
About these west winds
|
I know, I know
|
Seems everything around here
|
Stays like stone
|
Seems it's about time darling
|
About time we let this all go
|
|
Cause everything will start again anew
|
Cause everything just goes away my friend
|
And every king knows it to be true
|
And every kingdom must one day come to an end
|
|
And the sun, she may be long gone
|
Lost too these memories we've found
|
But she'll be here
|
When it's all done
|
When our bodies are lain beneath the ground
|
She knows everything that goes around
|
Comes, comes around here
|
She knows everything that stays here somehow
|
Gets me down again
|
|
Everything will start again anew
|
Cause everything just goes away my friend
|
And every king knows it to be true
|
And every kingdom must one day come to an end
|
