Unwritten

Close the curtain
The show is done
And all that remains
Are the silent empty seats alone
You played your piece
Your heart and soul
But yet you still believe
You could have given more


So where, where was the missing verse
That chorus so beautiful
The solo unheard
And the keys, the keys that didn't call
Where was it all
The song that you heard in your sleep?

She, she is the words I sing
Each note I write
Each verse I bring
But she, she was my everything
And now everything is gone
She is the songs that I could never write
The songs to which i couldn't breathe life

Leave the hall
Walk out the door
Never to return again
To play your final encore
As the lights grow dim
So do your eyes
You've lost the music
That kept your soul alive

So where, where was the missing verse
That chorus so beautiful
The solo unheard
And the keys, the keys that didn't call
Where was it all
The song that you heard in your sleep?

She, she is the words I sing
Each note I write
Each verse I bring
But she, she was my everything
And now everything is gone
She is the songs that I could never write
The songs to which I couldn't breathe life
