This could be our last good night together
We may never pass this way again.
Just let me enjoy it `til it's over, or forever
Please don't tell me how the story ends.

See the way our shadows come together
Softer than your fingers on my skin
Someday these may be all that we remember of each other
Please don't tell me how the story ends.

Never's just the echo of forever
Lonesome as a love that might have been.
Let me go on lovin' and believing `til it's over
Please don't tell me how the story ends.
Please don't tell me how the story ends.
