Orleans
Ending of a Song
When I look into the mirror of her eyes
I see all my visions fading
Into lines of broken dreams
A map of traveled roads with dead-end signs
A folded pair of jeans with worn-out seams
When I stare into the sorrow in her eyes
I find all the doors unaltered
By the scars of many years
Of pounding as I tried to get inside
But now the lock's grown rusty with her tears

Sometimes I feel her eyes are closing to my smile
This music man's been gone for far too long
I just can't hold her love across the miles
But it's hard to face the ending of a song

When I gaze into the future of her eyes
I see that I must turn away
And struggle to be strong
For she and I may have to say goodbye
And it's sad to face the thought
That maybe we were wrong

Sometimes I feel her eyes are closing to my smile
This music man's been gone for far too long
I just can't hold her love across the miles
But it's hard to face the ending of a song
Sometimes I feel her eyes are closing to my smile
This music man's been gone for far too long
I just can't hold her love across the miles
But it's hard to face the ending of a song
