Now that youre gone
Nothing is wrong
But everythings changed
Words in your hand
Do I set them in stone
Or throw them away
Now everything we did
Like photographs that always moved
(and that wasnt strange)
Now theyre in the can
Lets put them on a shelf
Lets put them in the ground
Theyll never move again
Ever after
Ever after
Ever after
Over and done
All of the fun
And all of the pain
Why dont I laugh
Why dont I cry
It ends up all the same
Now that youre gone
Everything is wrong
Though nothing has changed
And everything we said
Is there on a tape
For the future to play
Lets put it in the ground
Thats where it ought to stay
Ever after
Ever after
Ever after
And itll be all right . . .
