Until the End

Boy and girl lock eyes across a room He swore her smile made flowers bloom He'd pull her hair, she'd chase him Down the stairs, they're racing time Years went by, the boy's heart hadn't changed But she'd start smiling when he looked away Eventually, she caught up Hand-in-hand they crossed the line White dress in the summer Their son had his mother's eyes Until the end, until the end Until the end of time Until the end, until the end Until the end of time They lived free in the world they built for him Oh, they lived free, but the dark was closing in He couldn't stand by And she couldn't watch him die Until the end, until the end Until the end of time Until the end, until the end Until the end of time Until the end, until the end Until the end of time Until the end, until the end Until the end of time Early twenties fighting for their lives From dusk to dawn on the front lines They sold their youth to take up arms Broken bodies, broken hearts Their friends that used to cheat on tests Now twenty-one cheating death Go out for drinks and laugh before Losing their lives to settle scores The boy and girl that found a way Gave up their nights to dig their graves They'd say goodbye to meet again Neither had been prepared for when The darkness cast the fatal blow Oh, he bled out and she fled home She raced to keep her son alive And met her love on the other side Until the end, until the end Until the end of time Until the end, until the end Until the end of time Until the end, until the end Until the end of time Until the end, until the end Until the end of time Boy and girl lock eyes across a room Too young to know they'd die too soon
