It's not over at all   You're just trying to smile   I know perfectly well   Such are things we both know   And we think we should say   Just to organize the stains   Systems reveal their construction these days   As we escape to drift further away   We know the stars go out one night   But I can't tell you anything you wouldn't know   So nothing has been lost      It's not over at all   If my thoughts could be here   They'd advice you to leave   It's not easy, I know   Making hard things look small   But we're dying to try   You have revealed your conclusion by chance   I have replaced you at little expense    We know the stars go out one night   But I can't think of anything I haven't told   Still, nothing has been lost      When you could use the words reserved for a sad song   You'll find you've spent them up on God and everyone   Like anyone before      It's not over at all    You're just trying to smile   I know perfectly well   It's not over   but oh, if my thoughts could be here   They'd advice you to leave    We will be cold where the lights are all out   But at least we can think without   Reason or doubt   I don't know much about this world   but I can tell you one thing as I pass you by   Nothing has been lost
