The Beginning Of The End Of Love

This empty feeling deep inside of me
I just can't explain
But somehow things between us, love
Just weren't the same

You just come around
Every now and then
But before my touch can hold ya
You're gone again

Once I had control
Of everything you did
And held the very soul of you
But now you're drifting where I'm losing you

Sure enough
It's the beginning of the end of love

The shattered pieces of our lives
Lying ruined at our feet
And we're both far too proud to bend
And pick them up

We act like strangers all the time
We're like two words that just won't rhyme
The things we want to say
We've said them all before

Our steadiness and pride
I've pushed our love aside
And now there's nothing left
But promises gone all unkept

Sure enough
It's the beginning of the end of love

Helplessly I stand
Watching our love like grains of sands
Slip through my fingers
Into the dust of yesterday

It's like reading pages in the pool
Each day feels more afraid to look
At the final chapter
'Cause I know it holds a tragic ending

When we finally close the door
On all the things we had before
I'll be thinking of all the precious love
You've given me

And your love will always be
A neverending part of me
'Cause you made me so much more
Than I ever was before

And now I turn to see
The arms of emptiness
Are reaching out for me
I know that only time can set me free

Sure enough
It's the beginning of the end of love

Sure enough
It's the beginning of the end of love

Sure enough
It's the beginning of the end of love
