End of an era

Stop holding my hand
I get the feeling you don't understand
Cracks in the ceiling, snakes in the sand
Something too good to be true can't be planned
Go open your eyes
I gotta ruin the big surprise
You were a shoe in for the Nobel Prize
If only you knew that the judges had been bribed

Girl it's over and it's been for a while
We are older but we're both still in style
We can make it if we take a little time for ourselves
Cause there's nobody else

Do you remember that night
With us in the mirror and the neon light
It was clear something wasn't right
Overlooking the corner of 42nd and 9th
Don't cry anymore
I'm leaving you lying on the hotel floor
What's keeping you from trying to open the door
And putting it all behind

Girl it's over and it's been for a while
We are older but we're both still in style
We can make it if we take a little time for ourselves
Cause there's nobody else

Love is not a lie
Breaking your heart is how you learn to survive
I know it's hard to take your own advice
Take it from me and get on with your life

Girl it's over and it's been for a while
We are older but we're both still in style
We can make it if we take a little time for ourselves
Cause there's nobody else

Baby it's over, you're older
My shoulder, it is not gonna help you
You get over just take a little time for yourselves
Cause there's nobody else
Who can tell what you felt
And there's nothing to do
It's what you gotta go through
It's the end of an era and the start of something new
