VERSE
The End Will Come
Elton John
And when we start we say forever
We say we care, we need, we feel
We read the movement of our eyes
But in our hearts we still believe
The end will come, before we know
The silent rule of love applies
We light the fuse and let it burn out
We just accept that love must die
And so they say, the end will come for us
And so the world, slows down to let us off
Just hang it up and let it go, accept it if I must
But I don't believe, I don't believe that the end will come for us
No I won't believe the end will come for us
The end will come like sudden rain
The end is never what it seems
We sink the ship before we sail
We just accept what failure means
