lyrics

The End of the Day (© 2011 Mike Kimlicko)

Cold summer, waiting for the dawn
Leaves rustling on the lawn
Hard cushion, here to break my fall
Boards creaking in the hall

At the end of the day we're just stalling
There‟s nothing left to say
So you just walk away while I'm falling
'til it's gone, at the end of the day

Ice melting, drops slide down my glass
My taste for this has passed
Breeze blowing, lifts the hair from your neck
How did we become such a wreck?

At the end of the day we're just stalling
There's nothing left to say
So you just walk away while I'm falling, falling,
'til it's gone, at the end of the day

There‟s no reason or rhyme to what you say
At the end of the day

The fire's glowing, its heat won't warm my hands
When will you understand?
The train's whistling, leaving this town soon
No more will we share the moon

At the end of the day we're just stalling
There‟s nothing left to say
So you just walk away while I'm falling, falling
falling, falling, I'm falling, falling…
'til it's gone, at the end of the day

The end of the day
The end of the day
The end of the day
The end of the day
