The End of the Line
Ahola Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Yeah, it´s hard to name a price for your love ´Cause the say true love is easily above all
But what´s the price of the wasted years You gave for nothing but only the tears and the fears
Every time I call you, you seem to understand But when it´s the time to pay the dues I find I am
-still playing the blues
I am sorry it´s the end of the line I´ve had enough and running out of time
Why did you not listen to my advice and make up your mind
The end of the line Here is the place and here is the time
You broke my heart The end of the line, the end of the line
The end of the line
So, if you find yourself wondering why You´re standing alone and all the tears that you cry
Are never wiped away and baby´s not there
to give you shelter and show that you´re cared Face your fears, introduce your terms
No words can win over true love´s deeds and your needs
I know I´ve been a hard case and part of the descent
But when it´s time to pay the dues I find I am - The one to play the blues
I am sorry it´s the end of the line I´ve had enough and running out of time
Why did you not listen to my advice and make up your mind
The end of the line Here is the place and here is the time
You went your way and I lost mine Why did you not go when you knew you weren´t mine?
You broke my heart The end of the line, the end of the line
The end of the line The end of the line
I am sorry it´s the end of the line I´ve had enough and running out of time
Why did you not listen to my advice and make up your mind
The end of the line Here is the place and here is the time
We made our paths and here is the crime
Why did you not go when you knew you weren´t mine?
You broke my heart The end of the line, the end of the line
now make up your mind I´m not blind
The end of the line, the end of the line
The end of the line, the end of the line
