A two-tonne weight around
my chest feels like
It just dropped
a twenty-storey height
If there was anyone
to ever get through this life
With their heart still intact,
they didn't do it right
The last time I felt
your weight on my chest, you said
"We didn't get it right
but, love, we did our best"
And we will again
Moving on in time
and taking more from
Everything that ends
And all things end
All that we intend is scrawled in sand
And slips right through our hands
And just knowing
That everything will end
Should not change our plans
When wе begin again
We begin again, hmm-mm
I havе never known a silence
like the one fallen here
Never watched my future darken
in a single tear
I know we want this to go easy
by being somebody's fault
But we've gone long enough to know
this isn't what we want
And that isn't always bad
When people say
that something is forever
Either way, it ends
And all things end
All that we intend is scrawled in sand
Or slips right through our hands
And just knowing
That everything will end
We should not change our plans
When we begin again
We begin again
We begin again, hm-mm
Darling
And all things end
All that we intend is built on sand
Slips right through our hands
And just knowing
That everything will end
Won't change our plans
When we begin again
And all things end
(Knowing we can always start again)
All that we intend
(Knowing we have another day)
Is scrawled in sand
(Knowing we can always start again)
Or slips right through our hands
(Knowing we have another day)
And just knowing
(Knowing we can always start again)
That everything will end
Should not change our plans
When we begin again
