It All Has To End Sometime

Paul Auster, Michael Mantler

[Intro: Susi Hyldgaard & Robert Wyatt]
Do you think we'll ever find it?
Find it, find it, find it, find it
Do you think we'll ever find it?
Find it, find it, find it, find it
Do you think you'll ever find it?
Find it, find it, find it, find it
Do you think we'll ever find it?
Find it, find it, find it, find it

[Verse 1: Susi Hyldgaard & Robert Wyatt]
Do you think we'll ever find it?
First you must leave
And then you must be on your way
And then, if a door happens to appear before you
So much the better
But there is nothing that says you must open the door
And if you open the door anyway?
Then you have simply opened the door

[Verse 2: Susi Hyldgaard & Robert Wyatt]
To stand in an empty room
Or else, to discover that this is wherе you live
Or else, it is simply a door standing in thе road
You open it, step over the sill and discover there is no room at all
Nothing but more road stretching before you
And so you just move on
Putting one foot in front of the other
Continuing on your way
Until you come to another door
Or a wall without a door
Or a hole in the ground
Or a hole in the sky

[Verse 3: Susi Hyldgaard & Robert Wyatt]
And if none of this ever happened?
It would happen anyway
I'm so tired, I don't want to
Think about it anymore
That's part of what happens too
It all has to end sometime
Which means it can end at any moment
Most likely, it probably means
It will end at any moment

[Outro: Susi Hyldgaard]
Do you think we'll ever find it?
