When a good thing ends
And you see it coming
Your heels dig in
As if you could slow it down
All you get is
White knuckles
Hmm
With a grip so tight
You're giving him a reason
To run and hide
Now it's you who's left behind
Here you are again with
White knuckles
The world keeps spinning
And you're still in it
You just get dizzy
The clock, it won't stop ticking
The world's not ending
It just feels like it is
But that's what happens when
When a good thing ends
When a good thing ends
When a good thing ends
And you try to play it cool
But you're losing it
Yeah, you miss the ignorance
Put a blindfold on and
Pray for oblivion
Time won't wait for you
It'll always feel too soon
You can let it slip right through your fingers
No need to let it linger so long
The world keeps spinning (world keeps spinning)
And you're still in it (you're still in it)
You just get dizzy (dizzy, dizzy)
The clock, it won't stop ticking
The world's not ending (world's not ending)
It just feels like it is
But that's what happens when (happens when)
When a good thing ends
Hmm (world keeps spinning), when a good thing ends
(You're still in it)
(Dizzy, dizzy)
Oh (world keeps spinning)
Oh (world's not ending)
When a good thing ends
That's how you know
What a good thing is
