And then it was over and we took our applause.
|
We passed the peace pipe and thought no more
|
About the scenes that were missing, about the lines we had crossed.
|
And we smiled at each other and knew that the moment was lost.
|
|
I let you snuff out the candles, I let you blow out the flame,
|
And I knew that this time it would never be the same.
|
The smiles you had wavered, tears welled in your eyes
|
And I looked and I knew that this magic it was only a sign
|
For Sunsets on Empire it was only a dream.
|
I knew that it was broken when I heard you scream
|
I know you can't believe it. It meant nothing at all.
|
And we looked at each other and we smiled and the moment was gone.
|
Sunsets on Empire is this really the end
|
Sunsets on Empire left with a friend
|
Could have been a lover, could have been a wife
|
But when it comes right down to it all I want is a life,
|
Just a life.
|
|
You said it never mattered. You said it's just a thrill.
|
You couldn't beat it. Another bitter pill.
|
It never was a habit. A one off just for sure.
|
You never really thought it out but I hoped that one time
|
That you'd come back for more.
|
|
Sunsets on Empire that's where I am
|
Sunsets on Empire that's all we have.
|
To face a new beginning when you're so close to the end
|
And you looked at me gently and smiled,
|
Would you still be my friend?
|
|
You started to smile
|
Is this really the end?
|
Is this really the end?
|
Sunsets on Empire
|
The sun sets on Empire
