Don't Want An Ending
Sam Tsui Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
But we're all out of time (is this over?)
(Don't want an ending)
In one day, no way you'll be mine (is this over?)
(Don't want an ending)
Mmm (don't want an ending)
One more day and then we go
Yeah, the time goes on now
Don't ask me how, I don't know
We'll be home tomorrow
'Bout a thousand miles too far away
Say you won't forget and I'll be okay
At least tonight
It's just you and me and honestly
That's everything I need
I don't wanna fall out
But we're all out of time (is this over?)
(Don't want an ending)
In one day, no way you'll be mine (is this over?)
(Don't want an ending)
Tonight's the countdown
'Til the day we're not around (is this over?)
(Don't want an ending)
And you're gone
And we're on with our lives (is this over?)
(I don't want an ending)
No, I
Don't want an ending
The days turn to hours
And it's just a moment before they go
I'm scared to say goodbye 'cause what's after that?
I don't know
And as the years slip past us
If we lose track or lose the fight
I will search forever to find a way back
To tonight
Where it's just you and me and honestly
That's everything I need
I don't wanna fall out
But we're all out of time (is this over?)
(Don't want an ending)
In one day, no way you'll be mine (is this over?)
(Don't want an ending)
Tonight's the countdown
'Til the day we're not around (is this over?)
(Don't want an ending)
And you're gone and we're on with our lives, I (is this over?)
Don't want an ending
We say "See ya later"
But I know there's no way we're
Around here again (yeah)
And every until next time
Feels like one bad punchline
And I don't want that again
I don't wanna fall out
But we're all out of time (is this over?)
(Don't want an ending)
In one day, no way you'll be mine, I (is this over?)
(Don't want an ending)
I don't wanna fall out
But we're all out of time (is this over?)
(Don't want an ending)
In one day, no way you'll be mine, I (is this over?)
(Don't want an ending)
Tonight's the countdown
'Til the day we're not around (is this over?)
(Don't want an ending)
And you're gone (you're gone)
And we're on with our lives, I (is this over?)
(Don't want an ending)
(No) I
(Don't want an ending) (All out of time)
Don't want an ending
(Mm-mmm)

Ooohhh...
My heart is running on empty
One more day and then we go
Yeah, the time goes on now
Don't ask me how

But a thousand miles too far away
Say you won't forget and I'll be okay
At least tonight

No, don't want an ending
The days turn to hours
And it's just a moment before they go
I'm scared to say goodbye 'cause
What's after that
I don't know
And as years flew past us
If we lose track or lose the fight
I will search forever to find the way back to tonight
Where it's just you and me and honestly
That's everything I need
I don't wanna fall out
But we're all out of time

But I know there's no way
We're around here again
And every until next time
Feels like one back punch line
And I don't want that again.
