Jens Lekman - The End of the World Is Bigger Than Love lyrics

There's got to be someone here tonight Who can explain to me How shadows can also shed light How they can outshadow What happened between us and outline The burnt ground beneath us I need to be explained to Over and over How a broken heart is not the end of the world Because the end of the world is bigger than love I was in Washington D.C. for the election And when they announced the results I left the procession Content in the world's direction Tried to call you for an explanation Of the distance to the star constellations Or any explanation of How a broken heart is not the end of the world Because the end of the world is bigger than love And it's bigger than an iceberg Than the plume of a geyser And it's bigger than the spider Floating in your cider And it's bigger than the stock market Than the loose change in your pocket And the Flatbush Avenue Target And their pharmacy department And it's bigger than our problems And I our inability to solve them From Coney Island to Harlem To the end of the world and back again A broken heart is not the end of the world The end of the world is bigger than love
