Well now the party's over

Food and dishes all put away

Family and guests are all off in their beds

Looks like the end of the day.

Just you and I together,

And I don't know what to say.

It feels so strange, the same old game

Without a reason to play.

Without a reason to play.

I never shared the vision,

In fact I've never known.

From dawn to dusk relations rust,

You stood it all alone.

And there in all confusion,

So big, so fearless, so bold,

I tried so hard I almost died,

But now I guess you know,

But now I guess you know.

They're boarding up the windows,

The closets seem so small.

The picture frames of mem'ry lane

Come cascading off the wall.

And now the questions and the answers

Ring so hollow in my mind,

The reasons change, the agenda fades

Up against the wailing wall,

Up against the wailing wall.

Melting all my anger

As I turn life a page

To make some sense, to feel repent,

What to save and cast away.

Now in the final chapter

Of the greatest story told

I see so clear through clouded tears

I don't want to see you go,

I don't want to see you go.

Well now the party's over,

Food and dishes all put away.

Family and guests are all off in their beds,

Looks like the end of the day.

Just you and I together,

And I don't know what to say.

It feels so strange, the same old game,

Without a reason to play,

Without a reason to play.
