LAST THING
You were the last thing I thought I’d ever need – time a cross the water and what I do believe
Taking me for granted and now I realize with the passing of each coming day, sadness in your lies
Funny how we think of things we know we’re gonna miss
Strangulation in your eyes, needing one more kiss
Hiding from finalities as though we’ll never know sure make it hard to say “goodbye” as we head on down the road

I’ll tell you a story and I’ll tell you my dreams
It’s not so hard to notice things are often as they seem
Ignoring all the reasons still we choose to pretend
I think I’ll have another beer and toast to all my friends

Loosely asking strangers what we think they ought to know
You blazed right through my mind that day in Taos, New Mexico
Could this be the reason for my hypocrisy ?
I’m staring at a candle like it’s looking back at me

I’ll tell you a story and I’ll tell you my dreams
It’s not so hard to notice things are often as they seem
Ignoring all the reasons still we choose to pretend
I guess I’ll have another beer and charge it to my friends

I’m taking on some chances and I’m borrowing some time
Dancing in around a light that used to look like mine
Profound in everything I love and now that I can see how easy it is to walk away
I’m as good as I’ll ever be

I’ll tell you a story and I’ll tell you my dreams
It’s not so hard to notice things are often as they seem
Ignoring all the reasons still we choose to pretend
I guess I’ll have another beer and charge it to my friends
I think I’ll have another beer and charge it to my friends
I guess I’ll have another bee and charge it to my friends……
