about

“We’re Through” is an upbeat break up song with a sweet flavour and bitter message. Weaving between melody and harmony Helen and Shannon perform a duet that has you bopping along, but feeling forlorn for a love that was, but is no more.

lyrics

Verse 1
I have climbed a thousand mountains
Just to be with you
I have sailed the seven seas
On a lifeboat built for two
I have cut a million ties
When I tied the knot with you
I have broken down the barricades
Hopin we’ll get through

Pre-Chorus
But we’re done just like
The needle and
The damage
We’re done just like
The wine we drink each night
We’re done just like
We were before
We fell into this trap

Chorus
When all is said and done
We’re Through

Verse 2
I can’t write another love song
About how you done me wrong
I can’t hold another breathe
In the hope of change to come
We can’t run another lap
On this god forsaken track
You can’t tell me no more lies
That will make me wanna come back

Pre-Chorus
But we’re done just like
The needle and
The damage
We’re done just like
The wine we drink each night
We’re done just like
We were before
We fell into this trap

Chorus
When all is said and done
What’s Done can’t be undone
When all is said and done
We’re Through

BRIDGE
Why put off tomorrow what
Could be done today
Say goodbye and don’t look back
It’s easier this way

Pre-Chorus
But we’re done just like
The needle and
The damage
We’re done just like
The wine we drink each night
But we’re done just like
The needle and
The damage
We’re done just like
The wine we drink each night
We’re done just like
We were before
We fell into this trap

Chorus
When all is said and done
What’s Done can’t be undone
When all is said and done
What’s Done can’t be undone
When all is said and done...
