It only took a minute for us to finally end it

I guess we'd seen it coming for some time

Verse 2 

Too many tears have fallen, too many dreams were broken 

And holding on would be a waste of time 

But sometimes I know I'll wonder if it was really over 

'Cause it took us all night long to say goodbye 
 
Chorus 

    Now the flame is gone I know and the ashes have grown cold 

    And the love we had we'll never have again 

    But there's one ember left, it must have never died 

    'Cause it took us all night long to say goodbye 

    There's one ember left, it must have never died 

    'Cause it took us all night long to say goodbye
