there's a candle by the nightstand
a light fire by the bed
and you're smiling right beside me
like an angel in my head
it's a circle that keeps turning
your eyes speak words i don't hear
like bells that never ring
you say softly that you love me
and i whisper back the same
now, it's coming to a close, dear
our love story, our fairytale
why do things have to close down
why do curtains have to burn
i may be tired but i'm breathing
i need a straight line to curve
now that the deal is done
and the paper has to fold
and the stamp has to seal
the deal of the final reel
what do we say
when do we pay
when do we leave
what do we believe
everything that occurred
so it's coming to a close, dear
our love story, our fairytale
why do things have to close down
why do books have to burn
i'm so tired, i'm still breathing
i'm just starting to learn
so tired, still breathing
starting to burn
