lyrics

People come and people go
Such is life ephemeral
We put on our finest show
But we're only here for a moment

In the corners of our minds
Storing up our borrowed time
Tryna move that finish line
But we're only here for a moment

This is the part where we part
But it won't be for forever
It's just the start just the start
We'll begin again together
No it won't be for forever
Still it's such sweet sorrow

Massive ocean little boat
Now you see us now you don't
Just magicians heading home
We were only here for a moment
Like a cold man to a fire
Fanning embers through the sky
Tryna catch the fading light
'Cause we're only here for a moment

This is the part where we part
But it won't be for forever
It's just the start just the start
We'll begin again together
No it won't be for forever
Still it's such sweet sorrow

(It's just the start just the start)
Still it's such sweet sorrow
(We'll begin again together)
(No it won't be for forever)

People come and people go
Such is life ephemeral
We put on our finest show
But we're only here for a moment
And it's such sweet sorrow
