The Last Time

By this time, you'll be sitting on top of the world In your overcoat, all studded with pearls You might be drinking good wine Some real good wine out of crystal cups You know I'm still here in the shadows Tearing my heart out over love I ain't unhappy I'm the same just a little more soft You know I'd ask you for a piece of your time But I wouldn't know how much it'd cost. It's the last time you'll ever see my face again as long as you breathe So going out add another voice to life's great song We all knew you had it in you all along But I'd climb the tallest mountain for you So while you're leaving, you take what's yours and I'll take what's mine And we'll both call it even But boy, don't let those gravediggers in sight And don't ever pour too much of your heart out If you ain't got no place to hide. It's the last time you'll ever see my face again as long as you breathe You destroy my mind I think about it all the time you've given me a piece of your soul Just like I've given I piece of mine But boy, get your wagon to a star Cause there's a thousand people who would kill to be right where you are These nights I just stay up and watch the stars climb the hills And know I wish that I could say I could be as bright as them But I know that we never will. It's the last time you'll ever see my face again as long as you breathe You destroy my mind --- The Last Time - Chamberlain
