and when you feel you're near the end

will you just turn it over and start again

is there a stirring in your heart

as the time comes when we will have to part?



and when you feel you're near the end

and there's a stranger where once was a friend

and you are left without a word

only the whispers that you've overhead

standing in silence, holding my breath

disconnected and dry

and though I'm certain that there's nothing left

to hold on to, to give or to try

some things never change, no don't ever change

and i'm feeling the cold

thinking that we're getting older and wiser

when we're just getting old

and when you feel you're near the end

and what once burned so bright is growing dim

and when you see what's been achived

is there a feeling that you've been deceived?
