All’s Well That Ends Well

[Verse 1] You were only a healer’s daughter Hand on my wrist Saying “you’ll be fine” I was rich in pride and armor Poor in heart And short on time You read my pulse like a letter Every beat spelling out my fear I swore I’d chase some brighter future You just stood there Standing here [Chorus] All’s well that ends well Darling Or so the old plays say But I kept running farther You kept choosing to stay We turned our hurt to rumor Our promise into pretense All’s well that ends well Darling If we live to reach the end [Verse 2] You took my name like a wager Slipped that ring on your steady hand I took a road made of thunder Said I’d write when I could stand You crossed borders with a whisper Laid your hope on a stranger’s bed I chased shadows of a woman Who was you in my own head [Chorus] All’s well that ends well Darling Or so the old plays say But I kept running farther You kept choosing to stay We turned our hurt to rumor Our promise into pretense All’s well that ends well Darling If we live to reach the end [Bridge] In a dark room I was cornered By the truth I wouldn’t see (oh no) Every vow that I had broken Came back dressed in honesty You said “I was always here In the story you outgrew” I said “I had to lose the world To find my way to you” [Chorus] All’s well that ends well Darling Now I finally understand The ending isn’t magic It’s a slow Outstretched hand We stitched our scattered pages Into one Imperfect thread All’s well that ends well Darling If we choose the end we’ve read
