The Last Song

This may be the last thing that i write for long
Can you hear me smiling when i sing this song, for you and only
you
As I leave will you be someone to say good-bye
As I leave will you be someone to wipe your eye
My foot is out the door, and you can't stop me now
You wanted the best, it wasn't me, will you give it back
Now i'll take the lead, when there's no more room to make it
grow
I'll see you again, you'll pretend you're naive, is this what
you want
Is this what you need, how you end up let me know.
As I go, remember all the simple things you know,
My mind is just a crutch and I still hope, that you will miss me
when
I'm gone
This is the last song
The hearts start breaking as the year is gone
The dream's beginning and the time rolls on
It seems so surreal, now I sing it.
Somehow I knew that it would be this way,
Somehow I knew that it would slowly fade.
Now i'm gone, just try and stop me now.
You wanted the best, it wasn't me, will you give it back
Now i'll take the lead, when there's no more room to make it
grow
I'll see you again, you'll pretend you're naive, is this what
you want
Is this what you need, how you end up let me know.
As I go, remember all the simple things you know,
My mind is just a crutch and I still hope, that you will miss me
when
I'm gone
This is the last song
And will you need me now, you'll find a way somehow
You want it too, I want it too.
As I go, remember all the simple things you know,
My mind is just a crutch and I still hope, that you will miss me
when
I'm gone
This is the last song
