Why bother now,
it’s over and done.
Why bother now?
We shouldn’t have begun.

It’s too late now.
We should never have started
It’s too late now.
But it was never half-hearted.

It was always you and always me.
Always from the start.
It was always you and always me,
I knew it in my heart.

Was it really
a waste of time?
Is this really
A waste of rhyme?

Should I bother now?
Should I start again?
Should I bother now?
Is it worth the Pain?

For you it is…I know it is
Even from the start.
For you it is…I know it is
Always in my heart.

Why bother now
It’s over and done.
Why bother now?
We shouldn’t have begun.

But…
We did.
