Where do you go when the lights go out When the music stops the curtain falls The people all leave nothing but empty seats It's just you the piano and four walls Maybe happiness was never meant to last a lifetime Maybe we should cherish every moment while it lasts Maybe all these pieces fit together and we shouldn't even ask Who's to know Where do you go when the party's over And your friends have all left and gone home Dirty dishes, bottle tops cigarettes in paper cups The mess you're left to clean up all alone Maybe happiness was never meant to last a lifetime Maybe we should cherish every moment while it lasts Maybe all these pieces fit together and we shouldn't even ask Who's to know Where do you go when the love is gone And your heart is in pieces on the floor Do you sweep them all up and throw them away Or keep em close to your heart forever more Maybe happiness was never meant to last a lifetime Maybe we should cherish every moment while it lasts Maybe all these pieces fit together and we shouldn't even ask It's an open road Where do you go Tell me where do you go, oh, oh
