The End (Is The Beginning)

There it goes, that old familiar way
A year flies on the winter wind, oh
The leaves are blown right from the branch
I turn around, the avalanche comes in, oh
It’s hard to see beyond this dark December
But I’ve been trying to remember
The end is the beginning
The world don’t stop its spinning
Just because you close another door
And every ceiling’s just a floor
In this life that we are living
Changing is the hardest part
You say goodbye and then
You start all over again
Because
The end is the beginning is the end is the beginning
Is the beginning is the end is the beginning
The end, the end, the end, the end
Lately I’ve been thinking more
About the things we have to leave behind, oh
And all the songs we sing into the night
The hymns and the lullabies, oh
I don’t know why I run away from closure
When nothing’s ever really over
The end is the beginning
The world don’t stop its spinning
Just because you close another door
And every ceiling’s just a floor
In this life that we are living
Changing is the hardest part
You say goodbye and then
You start all over again
Because
The end is the beginning is the end is the beginning
Is the beginning is the end is the beginning
The end, the end, the end, the end
Oh, the end is the beginning is the end is the beginning
Is the beginning is the end is the beginning
The end, the end, the end, the end
When I was young I used to wonder
If what goes up comes back from under
It’s easier as I get older
To see that nothing’s ever really over
The end is the beginning
The world don’t stop its spinning
Just because you close another door
There’s always more
In this life that we are living
Changing is the hardest part
We say goodbye and then
We start all over again
Because the end
(The end is the beginning is the end is the beginning
Is the end is the beginning is the end is the beginning)
Is the beginning, is the beginning is the end is the beginning
(The end is the beginning is the end is the beginning
Is the end is the beginning is the end is the beginning)
The end, the end, the end, the end
Oh…
(The end is the beginning is the end is the beginning
Is the end is the beginning is the end is the beginning
The end, the end, the end, the end)
We start all over again because
The end is the beginning is the end is the beginning
Is the end is the beginning is the end is the beginning, oh
Is the beginning is the end is the beginning
Is the end is the beginning is the end is the beginning…
