unfinished endings

Left my leather-bound pages on the outbound train

Lost in the Boston winter rain

Every secret fear and every broken chord

Resting on a plastic seat,

ignored

But you found the words that I couldn't write

Reading just one page in the fading light

Leaving your number on the final sheet

Where the tracks and the destiny meet (ooh-ooh)

In that little café

where the steam would rise

We spoke of our loneliness and changing skies

How a stranger's hand could hold my dreams

And mend a heart torn at the seams

Because you found the words that I couldn't write

Reading just one page in the fading light

Leaving your number on the final sheet

Where the tracks and the destiny meet (yeah-eah)

You wrote "your unfinished song deserves an ending"

Not knowing it was our own beginning we were sending

From the train to the coffee cup

We picked the broken pieces

up

And now I see the words that we finally wrote

Every single day,

every single note

You are the ending that I could not find

The beautiful melody

left behind

(our song is whole)

My unfinished song... has its ending now.

With you.
