Lyrics
THE LAST WORD
Every once in a blue moon
Comes forever after that
But now the night is growing darker
Just like the words that you can?t take back
(pre-chorus)
and every single shouting star is falling
into the wishing well of my heart
(chorus)
well I thought I got the last word
with your laughing goodbye
but now on second thought
what made you laugh, surely make me cry
and the last word
is really why
I keep crying in my coffee
So I don?t drown in my beer
And these arms keep on reaching
Even though you?re no longer here
(repeat pre-chorus)
(repeat Chorus)
(lead)
(chorus)
and if you think you got the last word
with a laughing goodbye
well here?s a little food for thought
what makes you laugh can surely make you cry
and the last word
is really why
a lonely why
it?s hard to take it all in why
I?m so lonesome I could why
