The Close

Lyrics
Before you go away, There’s a few last things I need to say: You’ve always been a great friend, And I love that you can smile Even at the end. Oh, even at the end.

Smile as the curtains close; This can only be the end of act one. The end of act one. ‘Cause a person can only hurt for so long And I’m here to tell you it was worth it Even if it was hard.

And even though it’s strange to admit it, I love holding your hand at the end. Here comes the close, See it isn’t that bad. I’ll see you in another life, I’ll see you on another night, And then we won’t need To say goodbye, And then we’ll know it was worth the fight.

God has always got a plan We might not like it, but it still stands, So don’t be angry now— No, don’t be afraid— Just smile and be on your way Be on your way, oh, It’ll be okay, It’ll be okay, It’ll be okay, It’ll be okay, It’ll be okay, It’ll be okay!

And even though it’s strange to admit it, I love holding your hand at the end. Here comes the close, See it isn’t that bad. I’ll see you in another life, I’ll see you on another night, And then we won’t need To say goodbye, And then we’ll know it was worth the fight.

But for now it’s time to say goodbye, For now it’s time to say goodbye, For now it’s time to say goodbye, For now it’s time to say goodbye. Goodbye, Goodbye, Goodbye, Goodbye! Oh, why?
