A couple walks into a restaurant
She leads the way, she knows what table she wants
It's the one in the corner where the lights are dim
Where he said he loved her and if she'd marry him
But now the light has grown painfully bright
No shadows can hide the truth from their sight
If she could only bring back the night
When her diamond ring still had it's shine
But now it's over
Except for saying goodbye
A husband walks down streets where he shouldn't be
He peers down alleys looking for things he shouldn't see
He removes the wedding band from his hand
He rubs his finger and tries to understand
How did it ever come to this?
How could this miserable existence come from such wedded bliss?
He ducks into a dark and seedy bar
His heart's as empty as the tip jar
Now it's over
Chorus:
Except for saying goodbye
Except for saying goodbye
Except for saying goodbye
Except for saying goodbye
They both know they can't go on this way
But they deny the truth and hold on for just one more day
But it's over
Chorus
(Spoken over the Chorus):
There's another couple in another town
Where the daily grind has left them beaten down
They can't help but say the things that lead to dispute
They're scared of being lonely
But how much lonelier can it be?
