One Last Look
Sorrow pulls the strings holding my heart together
Your dying ray of light hardens my flowing joy
Losing hope, and dwindling spirits of fight
Won’t you stay one more night
And we can part with old times sake
Faintly saying “sorry” seems a poor way to say goodbye
But for you, it’s okay to say
Chorus
I’d never live it down without one last look
At who is leaving me behind, without your tender smile
When it comes to life we both have different dreams,
I want to live with you at my side and you want this pain to end now
I can’t say I don’t blame you for choosing such a path
After all, you and me both want us all to be happy
Dimming glows of lively ways and words go out like a light
It doesn’t do my heart good to see you this way
Nobody is counting on you to make this through; only for you to go at peace
Skimming the sea of loss you float out on a boat never to return
Morbid events such as this happen as often as we breathe
Every breath takes the life of another
Grief pierces our hearts as sharp as needles, but you can’t help it
Your time had come and we’re not to judge the will God gives us
I wrote you a note for the angels to carry to you when you get there
Please read it and know that I do understand this throbbing tragedy
At low tide please say you made it safely
Chorus
I’d never live it down without one last look
At who is leaving me behind, without your tender smile
When it comes to life we both have different dreams,
I want to live with you at my side and you want this pain to end now
Moving with the tide and keeping my balance in check
I can’t let this get me, I’ve got to stay strong
You wouldn’t want us all to be this way over your absence
I had found heaven in your voice
Now I find hell in the empty dreams of you
It’s anybody’s guess that a day will never go by where we won’t think of you
Moving with the tide and keeping my balance in check
I can’t let this get me, I’ve got to stay strong
You wouldn’t want us all to be this way over your absence
I had found heaven in your voice
Now I find hell in the empty dreams of you
It’s anybody’s guess that a day will never go by where we won’t think of you
Your dying ray of light hardens my flowing joy
Losing hope, and dwindling spirits of fight
Won’t you stay one more night
And we can part with old times sake
Faintly saying “sorry” seems a poor way to say goodbye
But for you, it’s okay to say
Chorus
I’d never live it down without one last look
At who is leaving me behind, without your tender smile
When it comes to life we both have different dreams,
I want to live with you at my side and you want this pain to end now
I can’t say I don’t blame you for choosing such a path
After all, you and me both want us all to be happy
Dimming glows of lively ways and words go out like a light
It doesn’t do my heart good to see you this way
Nobody is counting on you to make this through; only for you to go at peace
Skimming the sea of loss you float out on a boat never to return
Morbid events such as this happen as often as we breathe
