The 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 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 am 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
