If a sculpture were to shatter
Is there beauty in the memory?
(Baby) Tell me would it matter
If you're happier but after me
Does loving someone ever go?
Does it need to end for you
To ever even really know?
All I know is when you're with me
That's right where I should be
Why are we waiting for the ending
Turning the page before we've read it
Baby don't cry
Goodbye isn't here real
Why don't we dance around the exit
Until the music fades away
At least at the curtain call, we'll say
That we tried we tried we tried
I wasn't anticipating
When I kissed you on New Years Eve
We'd go from strangers to dating
To 3 words that I've heard but never received
Tell me does it matter?
That when you said that you loved me
Immediate reaction was to ask you what does love mean
If it's what i'm feeling right now
That's all we really need
Why are we waiting for the ending
Turning the page before we've read it
Baby don't cry
Goodbye isn't here real
Why don't we dance around the exit
Until the music fades away
At least at the curtain call, we'll say
That we tried we tried we tried
After all the sunsets
In three more years we'll meet back here
If we can't find our duet
The notes we write could reappear
If you've found someone else's hand to hold
Call it bittersweet
It won't be exact
But they'll have what I had
Why are we waiting for the ending
Turning the page before we've read it
Baby don't cry
Goodbye isn't here real
Why don't we dance around the exit
Until the music fades away
At least at the curtain call, we'll say
That we tried we tried we tried
