Until The End Of The World

Haven't seen you in quite a while

I was down the hold, just passing time

Last time we met was a low-lit room

We were as close together as bride and groom

We ate the food, we drank the wine

Everybody having a good time

Except you

You were talking about the end of the world



I took the money, I spiked your drink

You miss too much these days if you stop to think

You led me on with those innocent eyes

And you know I love the element of surprise

In the garden I was playing the tart

I kissed your lips and broke your heart

You, you were acting like it was the end of the world



In my dream I was drowning my sorrows

But my sorrows they learned to swim

Surrounding me, going down on me

Spilling over the brim

In waves of regret, waves of joy

I reached out for the one I tried to destroy

You, you said you'd wait until the end of the world.

(For Wim Wenders)
