[Verse 1]

And the birds still sing outside these

These windows, where we sat together

Like nothin' ever happened here, oh

Oh, the white house on the hill and black clouds o' weather


[Verse 2]

And the church spire, over the river

She still sits there, warm in the evening glow

But you don't care about these scenes I treasure

'Bout these west winds, I know, I know


[Pre-Chorus]

Seems everythin' around here stays like stone

Seems it's about time, darlin', 'bout time we let this all go


[Chorus]

Mm, 'cause everythin' must start again, anew

'Cause everythin' just goes that way, my friend

And every king who knows it to be true

That every kingdom must one day come to an e-e-end


[Post-Chorus]

E-e-end, oh-oh-oh, e-e-end

E-e-end, mm-mm


[Instrumental Break]


[Verse 3]

And the sun, eh, she may be long gone

Oh, lost to these memories we've found

But she'll be here when it's all done

When our bodies are layin' beneath the ground


[Pre-Chorus]

Seems everythin' that goes around, comes, comes around here

Seems everythin' that stays, babe, somehow gets me down again


[Chorus]

Mm, everythin' (ooh) must start again, anew

'Cause everythin' just goes that way, my friend

And every king (ooh) who knows it to be true

That every kingdom (ooh) must one day come to an e-e-end (oh)


[Outro]

E-e-end, oh-oh-oh, e-e-end (oh)

E-e-end (ooh-ooh)
