Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Though we've not reached the end
We should take some time apart
Leave here with no regrets
Knowing we gave our all
[PreChorus]
Oh, I cannot pretend
That this won't break our hearts
But we will meet again
I know the order's tall
But we could be so much more
[Chorus]
Out of the embers we'll rise from the ashes
Write in the stars with our names
That we are here
We are bruised, we are damaged
But the joy was worth the pain
Whoa-oh-oh-oh, love's a beautiful game
[Verse 2]
Oh, what a state we're in
But the war is far from won
Yeah, we did everything
Anyone could have done
[PreChorus]
We'll pick the pieces up
Put it together, we pray and hope it works
They say it's in the blood
And I know the order's tall
We could be so much more (Oh, oh, oh)
[Chorus]
Out of the embers we'll rise from the ashes
Write in the stars with our names (Oh, oh, oh)
That we are here
We are bruised, we are damaged
But the joy was worth the pain
Whoa-oh-oh-oh, love's a beautiful game
[Bridge]
Whoa-oh-oh-oh, whoa-oh-oh-oh
A beautiful game
Whoa-oh-oh-oh, whoa-oh-oh-oh (Whoa-oh-oh-oh, whoa-oh-oh-oh)
A beautiful game (It's just a beautiful game)
Whoa-oh-oh-oh, whoa-oh-oh-oh
A beautiful game (It's just a beautiful game)
Whoa-oh-oh-oh, whoa-oh-oh-oh
A beautiful Game
[Outro]
Out of the embers we'll rise from the ashes
Write in the stars with our names
That we are here
We are bruised, we are damaged
But the joy was worth the pain
Whoa-oh-oh-oh, love's a beautiful game
