How did it ever come to this? Seems like no time has gone by A lifetime spent in indolent bliss A lifetime spent trying to say goodbye You told me I was your everything Now tell me, was that a lie? A lifetime spent having never seen A lifetime intent on getting by Love never seems to grow On its own I swear The time is hard, but there's a way We can get up all the way to the end To the end The life we built looks so picturesque I only saw it from one side Now when I look at your wedding dress There's a lifetime of teardrops in the sky Love never seems to grow On its own I swear The time is hard, but there's a way We can get up all the way to the end To the end How did it ever come to this? Seems like no time has gone by A lifetime spent living for the kiss Of a lifetime spent trying to say goodbye A lifetime spent trying to say goodbye A lifetime spent trying to say goodbye
