Lyrics

VERSE
What started with a kiss should not have come to this
What grew in their hearts should not have come apart
He wishes more than anything that he understood
Why the end is at hand; he’d fix it if he could

CHORUS
(Now) (Yes) he’s painfully aware they’re beyond repair
And the pain just may be more than he can bear
What he thought was love is now just a chill in the air
And he’s painfully aware they’re beyond repair

VERSE
Lovers now and then wind up in a fight
And take it too far for good sense to catch up
Of course, he thought their love had been burning bright
But sometimes what that is just isn’t love

Repeat CHORUS/SOLO/VERSE
So where do they go from here? He thinks it’s best to leave
Hide himself away; try to ease her from his mind
He just can’t go on in a world of make believe
But it’s gonna be hard to break the ties that bind

Repeat CHORUS/TAG
Oh, he’s so painfully aware they’re beyond repair
