Lyrics

11. After It Ends
by Judy Banker

1.
Outside my window
I heard some talking
Two people on the sidewalk below

2.
He said what were you thinking
She said I wasn’t thinking
He said I don’t think I love you anymore

3.
He took off walking
She sat down crying
On the stone step by the door

Bridge:
Probably wondering why
Probably wanting to die

Ch:
I’ve been there a time or two
Wondering what to do
To pick up the pieces of a life all in pieces

4.
A bird on a branch
Woke from his rest
To sing her his sweet melody

5.
A breeze stirred the leaves
In whispered harmony
She lifted her chin from her chest

6.
I picked a rose from the vine
That grows up the side
Of the wall by my windowsill

7.
It slipped from my hand
Sailed down to land at her feet
She looked up at me and I said


Ch a):
I’ve been there a time or two
Wondering what to do
To pick up the pieces of a life all in pieces

Ch b):
And we smiled at each other cuz we’re both survivors
Of these days in a world that has come to an end.

8.
Underneath a tree where a sweet bird sings
And the breeze blows harmony
And roses fall at your feet
