All American Rejects - The Last Song lyrics

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 goodbye?

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? You want me to 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 am 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

And now I am gone, just try and stop me now

You wanted the best, and 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 am gone, this is the last song

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 am gone, the last song

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 am gone, this is the last song
