Everything

And the birds still sing outside

These windows where we sat together

Like nothing ever happened here

The white house on the hill

Black clouds of weather

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

About these west winds I know I know

Seems everything around here

Stays like stone

Seems it's about time darling

About time we let this all go

Everything must start again anew

Everything just goes that way my friend

Every king knows it to be true

That every kingdom must one day come to an end

And the sun she may be long gone

Lost to these memories we found

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

When our bodies are lain beneath the ground

Seems everything that goes around

Comes around here

Seems that everything that stays

Somehow gets me down again

Everything must start again anew

Everything just goes that way my friend

Every king knows it to be true

That every kingdom must one day come to an end
