I know you’ve got to go
I’m standing in the doorway
Watching you leave
While the sun sets in the distance
We talked all through last night
Kept our counsel all day
I still can’t believe
We show no resistance
For we both know
We lived in soap opera play
Doing everything to deceive
Pushing off this last dance
There is always an end
To something good
There’s always a beginning
To something we call love
I don’t know what it is
Or how to make it work
All that I’ve learned
Is we have to take the chance
I know you’ve got to go
I’m standing in the doorway
Watching you leave
While the sun sets in the distance
