Quits
Love's Final Chapter: Gary Stewart's Poetic Farewell
Lyrics
What do we call it now
Questioning the appropriate term for the current relationship status.
It isn't marriage anymore
Stating that the current situation doesn't align with the traditional concept of marriage.
Call it new and different
Describing the relationship as something new and different.
It's not the way it was before
Acknowledging that it has changed from how it used to be.
Out of all the words to choose from
Expressing the limited options in describing the situation.
There's only one that fits
Emphasizing that there's only one suitable term.
Call it what you want to
Encouraging the use of any fitting term to describe the relationship.
I just call it quits
Personally choosing to label it as 'quits,' indicating an end.
We've come down to the place
Describing the relationship as having reached a point where love is struggling.
Where love barely fits
Indicating that love is barely holding on.
Call it what you want to
Encouraging the use of any appropriate term to define the situation.
I call it quits
Personally choosing to term it as 'quits,' suggesting a decision to end the relationship.
Turn and walk away
Suggesting a decisive action of turning away from the relationship.
Across the desert of our hearts
Using a metaphorical desert to symbolize the difficulties in the relationship.
Loves kinda said that we've run out of time
Indicating that love has indicated a lack of time, possibly referring to an end.
And though we once had something
Acknowledging that there was something significant in the past.
No words could tear apart
Expressing that no words can destroy what was once present.
Now you be your's and I'll be mine
Accepting separation and individuality as the new reality.
We've come down to the place
Reiterating that love is barely holding on.
Where love barely fits
Stating that love is struggling to fit in the current circumstances.
Call it what you want to
Encouraging the use of any suitable term to describe the relationship.
I call it quits
Personally choosing to label it as 'quits,' indicating a decisive end.
Call our friends
Advocating for communication with friends about the relationship status.
And tell them,
Starting a sentence to convey a message to friends.
Oh tell them that we just don't care
Indicating a lack of concern for external opinions.
Tell them dreams of flowers
Sharing a contradictory image of dreams versus reality in the relationship.
But our garden's bare
Describing the current state of the relationship as unfulfilled and lacking.
Call it separation, independence
Suggesting various terms like separation, independence, and divorce to describe the situation.
Divorce, if that word fits
Stating that any of the suggested terms can be used to define the relationship.
Call it what you want to
Encouraging the use of any fitting term to describe the relationship.
I just call it quits
Personally choosing to term it as 'quits,' indicating a decisive end.
We've come down to the place
Reiterating that love is struggling to fit in the current circumstances.
Where love barely fits
Stating that love is barely holding on in the present state of the relationship.
Call it what you want to
Encouraging the use of any suitable term to describe the relationship.
I call it quits
Personally choosing to label it as 'quits,' indicating a decisive end.
