Is That All There Is to

Letra

[Verse 1] You left your coat across the chair The room went quiet, still you stayed I watched the candle lose its nerve And asked the question I had saved [Pre-Chorus] Was all that waiting worth the years? Was every promise just a door? [Chorus] Is that all there is to it? A hand held close, then letting go A little warmth against the cold A name that time can’t keep Is that all there is to it? If so, then tell me soft and slow I’m not afraid of what I know I only want to know [Verse 2] The band has packed their cases up The velvet seats are dark and still Your silver ring is on the bar Beside the glass you couldn’t fill [Pre-Chorus] Was all that wanting just a spark? A brief bright thing before the dark? [Chorus] Is that all there is to it? A hand held close, then letting go A little warmth against the cold A name that time can’t keep Is that all there is to it? If so, then tell me soft and slow I’m not afraid of what I know I only want to know [Bridge] Don’t dress the truth in pretty words Don’t turn away or change the tune Stay here until the room is bare And let the silence answer soon [Final Chorus] Is that all there is to it? The last note falling through the hall The one you loved, the one who calls Then learns to sleep alone Is that all there is to it? Then let the dark be plain and true I’ll take the answer here with you And walk back out alone [Outro] Is that all there is to it?
