"Some Songs Simply End" (poetic draft)

From all that's compromised
There's nothing left to fear
I finally realized
Someday you'd have to go
And that was yesterday
To late for you to know
My heart was still in play
I should have told you then
But life's a busy street
You drive and drive again
Through snow or summer heat
But I apologize
I cannot change the past
Sometimes the feeling dies
It slips right through our grasp
I bet you think we tried
I didn't try enough
I played the poker's lie
A gambler's losing bluff
Maybe someday we'll see
That love plays funny games
One day's not destiny
One ember's not a flame
I hope you feel okay
Tomorrow's not today
You'll find another way
To not be led astray
I wish you all the best
'Cause all the pieces left
Like dust they've come to rest
On my heart's failing test
I hope you don't look back
I hope you stay on track
You deserve much more
You'll find a love that's sure
We both have to move on
And I'll be lonely here
The ending of our song
Is past from being near
[CHORUS / OUTRO]
But
Some songs simply end
Like our's did way back then
Or
Some songs simply end
Before they skip again
[REPEAT AND FADE]
