Janis Ian — The Light at the End of the Line

[Verse 1] It's the end of the line And I know it’s been rough Oh, but time after time It was always enough You were there when I laughed You were there when I cried You are there as I tell you goodbye [Verse 2] It’s the end of the line And whatever they say I was yours, you were mine Just a heartbeat away Close enough to be kissed Far enough to be missed From the cradle to silver and grey [Bridge] In due time, there will be Someone else who will see All the good in your heart Even though we’re apart Oh, how I’ve loved your heart [Verse 3] In the blink of an eye All that’s left is the past And the memories fade ‘Til there’s silence at last But the song will remember The spark will still shine It's the light at the end of the line There's a light at the end of the line
