I hope you're the end of my story

I hope you're as far as it goes

I hope you're the last word I ever utter

It's never your time to go

Sometimes this road that we travel

Feels like it's leading us on

Spinning our wheels just stirs up the gravel

Before you know it it's gone

I hope you're the end of my story

I hope you're as far as it goes

I hope you're the last word I ever utter

It's never your time to go

I'll keep on turning the pages

Oh what a story to tell

You'll still be my sweetheart when everything ages

You'll be the last book on my shelf

I hope you're the end of my story

I hope you're as far as it goes

I hope you're the last word I ever utter

It's never your time to go

I hope you're the last word I ever utter

It's never your time to go
