Eb5 Bb5 G5 Ab5 I know commitment is not the trend Eb5 Bb5 G5 Ab5 don't misunderstand what I intend Eb5 Bb5 G5 Ab5 when I say this doesn't have to end we washed the dishes knowing everything was all right and there together in the curtain drifting twilight I know your laughter shouldn't make me feel so scared how could I doubt you, I know how much you cared I hear it when you sigh but I still don't know why why does this ever have to end? why can't I give you my heart and hand? I think you're too scared to understand this doesn't ever have to end . . . go! Interlude (x2) : F#5 , Ab5 , Bb5 , C#5; F#5 , Ab5 , Bb5 , D#5!! Main riff (x2: first with just guitar; second time, w/ bass & drums) I see you standing by a window in the hall our eyes collide without a single word at all the record asks, "will you still need me when I'm 64?" I can't imagine that I wouldn't need you more too many tears to cry I just won't let it die this doesn't ever have to end life is so long and my heart won't mend you are my lover, you're my best friend but this doesn't ever have to end End on D#5.
