The Ending
Of The Show

This is a demo disc I had made of a song I wrote some time ago (so it's not me singing on it) and is here free for you to listen to the complete song.

It's been deliberately left open to interpretation by the listener.

For example this could be a performer thanking an audience at the end of a performance, it could be the end of a first date, the break up of a longer relationship or even a funeral song. Take your pick!

I hope you like it.

The moment that we met I made myself a bet
I wouldn't get emotional over you
But to leave now brings me sorrow for I know tomorrow
I will still remember you
The evening we have shared I never even dared to hope
It could be like this that I have known
But the minutes went so quickly how I wished
There wouldn't be a finish to the show

And now the show is ending can't you see I'm not pretending
I have grown to love you so
You've been wonderful to me and now it's plain to see
I can't bear to see you go
And with the final curtain one thing is for certain
It will numb this heart of mine
But it's the ending of the show and it's time for me to go
If only there could have been more time

You gave me a fleeting chance to make this meeting
Into more much more than words can tell
But time went by so fast until at last all that's left to say is farewell
If the chance should come our way to meet again someday
I would love to be with you again
But if this really is goodbye I ask the question why
For my heart will never be the same

And now the show is ending can't you see I'm not pretending
I have grown to love you so
You've been wonderful to me and now it's plain to see
I can't bear to see you go
And with the final curtain one thing is for certain
It will numb this heart of mine
But it's the ending of the show and it's time for me to go
If only there could have been more time
If only there could have been more time
