[Verse 1]

Do you believe in happy endings?

Or the mendings of human hearts?

Oh I believe in both, I'm certain

Because these curtains are state of the art

If you'd occasionally happen to spy on me

You'd think I'm having one sided conversations

But I hear him talking back

You'd think I may even lack some sanity

But maybe I can't let go

And so I'll say


[Chorus]

I finally wrote your song at last

Sorry that this one came out so sad

Every tear I had was shed for the man

That gave me a better sense of life and meaning

To motivate, there's no short-cuts to success

I'll wait for his guiding hands

My guardian angel until the very end


[Verse 2]

I see a cold seat on the couch where I remember

That just four years ago around December

You sat me down and held me next to you, so close

How I long for things to be restored

To back when times weren't quite this hard

In the car that song you sang to me

Never rang so loud before


[Pre-Chorus]

Oh, what I'd give for just another hug from you

You may be gone, but love will never die

And so I'll say


[Chorus]

I finally wrote your song at last

Sorry that this one came out so sad

Every tear I had was shed for the man

That gave me a better sense of life and meaning

To motivate, there's no short-cuts to success

I'll wait for his guiding hands

My guardian angel until the very end


[Bridge]

Tears can't run dry when I start to cry

When I hear people speak of how you'd be so proud of me

And how I hope this song will reach your ears

I battled all my darkest fears

I once was blind, but now it's clear

Wherever I go I know that you'll be near


[Chorus]

I finally wrote your song at last

Sorry that this one came out so sad

Any tear I had was shed for the man

That gave me a better sense of life and meaning

To motivate, there's no short-cuts to success

I'll wait for his guiding hands

My guardian angel until the very end

Until the very end

My guardian angel until the very end
