Lyric: Our Canon In D

I. I wrote a song for you
I don't know if you'll listen to
But if you do
I don't think you
Will understand the poetry

Don't think I'll let you go
So easily, girl you don't know
The depth to which
I understand
Just how much you were meant for me

II. I had a dream last night
That we somehow had made it right
And everything
Was new and green
And we could dance eternally

But then the sun came out
And I woke up to face the doubt
That you and I
Would ever see
Each other as we used to be

Chorus: I can't understand
How the feeling that we know we had
Could just be abandoned
Be tossed into the wind
So easily
It cannot be
You know it meant too much

When in the end
After everything is said and done
See, we chose to spend
An eternity without
A melody
A symphony
A life without our Canon in D




III. I've heard a story told
About a staircase made of gold
That winds its way
Up through the clouds
And stops at Heaven's door

And if someday I stand
Before that door without your hand
Wrapped up in mine
I'll sit right down
And wait forever more

Chorus: I can't understand
How the feeling that we know we had
Could just be abandoned
Be tossed into the wind
So easily
It cannot be
You know it meant too much

When in the end
After everything is said and done
See, we chose to spend
An eternity without
A melody
A symphony
A life without our Canon in D

IV. See
The sun is sinking low
It's time for me to go
And try
To just get by
Bye
Bye
