[Verse] It was all laid out in the cards The sudden wind The distant stars The somber sun A room for one A flight that would be ours [Chorus] We wanted to stay but we didn't But if we could We would [Verse 2] The final fall A new departure It wasn't cruel It wasn't harsh Our colors faded into darkness We wanted to stay but we didn't It wasn't cruel It wasn't harsh It was a slow goodbye [Chorus] We wanted to stay but we didn't It was a slow goodbye
