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 lightHow they can outshadow
What happened between us and outline
The burnt ground beneath usI need to be explained to
Over and overHow a broken heart is not the end of the world
Because the end of the world is bigger than loveI was in Washington D.C. for the election
And when they announced the results
I left the procession
Content in the world's directionTried to call you for an explanation
Of the distance to the star constellations
Or any explanation ofHow a broken heart is not the end of the world
Because the end of the world is bigger than loveAnd 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 againA broken heart is not the end of the world
The end of the world is bigger than love
