Sunsets On Empire Lyrics - Fish

And then it was over and we took our applause 

We passed the peace pipe and thought no more 

About the scenes that were missing, about the lines we had crossed 

And we smiled at each other and we knew that the moment was lost 

I let you snuff out the candles, I let you blow out the flame 

And I knew that this time it would never be the same 

The smile you had wavered, tears welled in your eyes 

And I looked and I knew that this magic, it was only a sign 

For sunsets on Empire, it was only a dream 

I knew that it was broken when I heard you scream 

I know you can't believe it that it meant nothing at all 

And we looked at each other and we smiled and the moment was gone 

The sunsets on Empire, is this really the end? 

Sunsets on Empire left with a friend 

Could have been a lover, could have been a wife 

But when it comes right down to it all I want is a life 

Just a life 

You said it never mattered, you said it's just a thrill 

You couldn't beat it, another bitter pill 

It never was a habit, a one off just for sure 

You never really thought it out but I hoped that one time 

That you'd come back for more 

The sunsets on Empire, that's where I am 

Sunsets on Empire, that's all we have 

So face a new beginning when you're so close to the end 

And you looked at me gently and smiled, could you still be my friend? 

You started to smile 

Is this really the end? 

Is this really the end? 

Sunsets on Empire 

The sunsets on Empire
