End Of The Game Lyrics - Brand New Day - Sting

The fox had done running 

And the beast is at bay 

He'd run them in circles 

By the end of the day 

They chased him through bramble 

They chased him through the fields 

They could chase him forever 

But the fox would not yield 

And some saw her shadow 

On the crest of a hill 

And the hounds were distracted 

Away from the kill 

One day we'll reach a great ocean 

At the end of a pale afternoon 

And we lay down our heads just like we were sleeping 

Controlled by the drag of the moon

We ran through the forests 

And we ran through the streams 

We ran through the heather 

Though we ran in our dreams 

And you were my lover 

And I was your beau 

We ran like the river 

What else did we know? 

One day we'll reach a great ocean 

At the end of a pale afternoon 

And the dogs are all worn out 

And the horses all lame 

Oh the hunters they're hunted 

At the end of the game 

Photos 

Our love was a river 

A wild mountain stream 

In a tumbling fury 

On the edge of a dream 

And they chased us through the brambles 

And they chased us through the fields 

They'd chased us forever 

But the heart would not yield 

When the fox has done running 

At the end of the day 

I'm ready to answer 

I'm ready to pay 

And this river's done running 

And my time will come soon 

Carried to the great ocean 

By the drag of the moon
