"How Did It End?"

[00:13.43] (Uh-oh, uh-oh)

[00:24.05] We hereby conduct this post-mortem

[00:29.39] He was a hot house flower to my outdoorsman

[00:35.28] Our maladies were such we could not cure them

[00:40.86] And so a touch that was my birthright became foreign

[00:46.17] Come one, come all, it's happenin' again

[00:52.01] The empathetic hunger descends

[00:57.59] We'll tell no one except all of our friends

[01:03.44] We must know

[01:07.20] How did it end?

[01:10.68] (Uh-oh, uh-oh)

[01:20.84] We were blind to unforeseen circumstances

[01:26.95] We learned the right steps to different dances

[01:32.54] And fell victim to interlopers' glances

[01:38.65] Lost the game of chance, what are the chances?

[01:43.70] Soon, they'll go home to their husbands

[01:46.36] Smug 'cause they know they can trust him

[01:49.01] Then feverishly calling their cousins

[01:54.85] "Guess who we ran into at the shops?

[02:00.43] Walking in circles like she was lost

[02:06.27] Didn't you hear? They called it all off"

[02:11.85] One gasp and then

[02:15.83] "How did it end?"

[02:40.54] Say it once again with feeling

[02:43.52] How the death rattle breathing

[02:46.43] Silenced as the soul was leaving

[02:49.35] The deflation of our dreaming

[02:52.32] Leaving me bereft and reeling

[02:55.51] My beloved ghost and me

[02:58.70] Sitting in a tree

[03:01.36] D-Y-I-N-G

[03:06.18] It's happenin' again

[03:12.82] How did it end?

[03:18.16] I can't pretend like I understand

[03:24.27] How did it end?

[03:26.16] Come one, come all, it's happenin' again

[03:32.00] The empathetic hunger descends

[03:37.58] We'll tell no one except all of our friends

[03:43.42] But I still don't know

[03:47.16] How did it end
