Don't Let It End This Way

The minutes are slipping away

As we say our last goodbye

Bid the world a fond farewell

We'll share in a final embrace

When the lights begin to fade

It's a tale they had to tell

I'm wiping the tears from your face

Though i can't control myself

God have mercy on us all

The chapter has ended a story

That only just begun

First the rise and then the fall

But don't let it end this way

Before you can go

There's something that i must say

Don't let it end this way

It's too late to cry

When winter has come to stay

I once had a book in my hand

That i didn't understand

Now i witness every page

So won't you come closer my love

Now our time has nearly come

Take a bow and leave the stage

But don't let it end this way

Before you can go

There's something that i must say

Don't let it end this way

It's too late to cry

When winter has come to stay

Now it's time to close your eyes

But don't let it end this way

Before you can go

There's something that i must say

Don't let it end this way

It's too late to cry

When winter has come to stay
