[Lyric] We Can Move On (Matthew Ebel)

So they say this is the end
Wipe the makeup from my face
Fill my glass and fade away
So someone else can take my place
It's okay, we'll still be friends
Sure, I've said that line before
Still it's nice to say once more
Even though my voice is hoarse

Watch the magic dissipate as lights come on
On your breath, a lingering song
All I have to give is gone

Gather 'round like fallen leaves;
Once the pride of summer's dawn
Brittle flashes come and gone
Now we lie here on the lawn
While the stars who light our way
Burn beyond the lives of men
We will rise with them and then
Light the fires of youth again
To the ashes we return like birds of flame
Though we've sung the old refrain
It will never sound the same

CHORUS:
We can move on
We can move on
Together
We can move on
We can move on
Together
One more time

Set my glass upon the bar
Know this spirit won't pervade—
Taste the hour, then let it fade
Lingering traces, memories made
Curtain calls and kisses blown
Divvy up the artifacts
Heaven knows when I'll be back
Out the door into the black

Once again we march into the great unknown
Bearing all the will we've sown;
We will never be alone
CHORUS
