Atomic Tom - This Is How We Like To End lyrics

rate me

This is how we like to end

Takes a moment to begin

Time to leave the book behind

And turn the pages of the tide

Plant the memories in a safe place

'Til they grow into an embrace

When they share the separate leaves

Then the branches start to bend

This is how we like to end

This is how we like to live

Sometimes it takes so much to give

Sometimes we're broke 'til we learn

We blame the world until it turns

But is that how the magic started?

Or is this how we're broken-hearted?

Is this what it takes to try?

We don't always get to win

This is how we like to end

So put your conscience in this cradle

And let it live until we're able

And it's not up to you and me

It's just how we like to mend

This is how we like to end

This is how we learn to breathe

And it's not up to you and me

Takes a moment to begin

This is how we like to end

This is how we live life

This is how we say goodbye

We can't say it by ourselves

So we tell it to a friend

This is how we like to end
