We knew it going in
It never could have been
More than a slice of time

So why am I surprised
By the sorrow in your eyes
That's weighing on both our minds

If just for the moment
We two are together
How do we say goodbye

To the things that might have been
We knew it going in

On the day that we first met
We decided to go ahead
I never thought it really meant I'd have to
Go on without you

From the rapture to the pain
The story will remain
Long after we've grown apart

I just can't imagine
Never having loved you
This is a moment we can't deny

Though it kills to let you go
And the torture's gonna grow
It's hard to know where to begin
To face the inescapable end
But we knew it going in
